Site-Dependent Effects of tDCS Uncover Dissociations in the Communication Network Underlying the Processing of Visual Search (2013)
Journal Article
Ball, K., Lane, A., Smith, D., & Ellison, A. (2013). Site-Dependent Effects of tDCS Uncover Dissociations in the Communication Network Underlying the Processing of Visual Search. Brain Stimulation, 6(6), 959-965. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.brs.2013.06.001

Background: The right posterior parietal cortex (rPPC) and the right frontal eye field (rFEF) form part of a network of brain areas involved in orienting spatial attention. Previous studies using transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) have demonstra...

Efficacy and feasibility of home-based training for individuals with homonymous visual field defects (2013)
Journal Article
Aimola, L., Lane, A. R., Smith, D. T., Kerkhoff, G., Ford, G. A., & Schenk, T. (2014). Efficacy and feasibility of home-based training for individuals with homonymous visual field defects. Neurorehabilitation and Neural Repair, 28(3), 207-218. https://doi.org/10.1177/1545968313503219

Background. Homonymous visual field defects (HVFDs) are one of the most common consequences of stroke. Compensatory training encourages affected individuals to develop more efficient eye movements to improve function. However, training is typically s...

Near and far space: understanding the neural mechanisms of spatial attention (2013)
Journal Article
Lane, A., Ball, K., Smith, D., Schenk, T., & Ellison, A. (2013). Near and far space: understanding the neural mechanisms of spatial attention. Human Brain Mapping, 34(2), 356-366. https://doi.org/10.1002/hbm.21433

Visuospatial neglect is a multicomponent syndrome, and one dissociation reported is between neglect for near (peripersonal) and far (extrapersonal) space. Owing to patient heterogeneity and extensive lesions, it is difficult to determine the precise... Read More about Near and far space: understanding the neural mechanisms of spatial attention.
