Visually Guided Reaching Depends on Motion Area MT+ (2007)
Journal Article
Whitney, D., Ellison, A., Rice, N., Arnold, D., Goodale, M., Walsh, V., & Milner, A. (2007). Visually Guided Reaching Depends on Motion Area MT+. Cerebral Cortex, 17(11), 2644-2649. https://doi.org/10.1093/cercor/bhl172

Visual information is crucial for goal-directed reaching. A number of studies have recently shown that motion in particular is an important source of information for the visuomotor system. For example, when reaching a stationary object, movement of t... Read More about Visually Guided Reaching Depends on Motion Area MT+.

The interaction of brain regions during visual search processing as revealed by transcranial magnetic stimulation (2007)
Journal Article
Ellison, A., Lane, A., & Schenk, T. (2007). The interaction of brain regions during visual search processing as revealed by transcranial magnetic stimulation. Cerebral Cortex, 17(11), 2579-2584. https://doi.org/10.1093/cercor/bhl165

Although it has long been known that right posterior parietal cortex (PPC) has a role in certain visual search tasks, and human motion area V5 is involved in processing tasks requiring attention to motion, little is known about how these areas may in...

Time course of the involvement of the ventral and dorsal visual processing streams in a visuospatial task (2007)
Journal Article
Ellison, A., & Cowey, A. (2007). Time course of the involvement of the ventral and dorsal visual processing streams in a visuospatial task. Neuropsychologia, 45(14), 3335-3339. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuropsychologia.2007.06.014

A previous transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) study [Ellison, A., & Cowey, A. (2006). TMS can reveal contrasting functions of the dorsal and ventral visual processing streams. Experimental Brain Research, 175, 618–625] showed that both the dorsa... Read More about Time course of the involvement of the ventral and dorsal visual processing streams in a visuospatial task.
