Automated measurement of resolution acuity in infants using remote eye-tracking (2014)
Journal Article
Jones, P., Kalwarowsky, K., Atkinson, J., Braddick, O., & Nardini, M. (2014). Automated measurement of resolution acuity in infants using remote eye-tracking. Investigative Ophthalmology & Visual Science, 55(12), 8102-8110. https://doi.org/10.1167/iovs.14-15108

Purpose. To validate a novel, automated test of infant resolution acuity based on remote eye-tracking. Methods. Infants aged 2 to 12 months were tested binocularly using a new adaptive computerized test of infant vision using eye tracking (ACTIVE), a...

A prospective longitudinal study of retinal structure and function in achromatopsia (2014)
Journal Article
Aboshiha, J., Dubis, A., Cowing, J., Fahy, R., Sundaram, V., Bainbridge, J., …Michaelides, M. (2014). A prospective longitudinal study of retinal structure and function in achromatopsia. Investigative Ophthalmology & Visual Science, 55(9), 5733-5743. https://doi.org/10.1167/iovs.14-14937

Purpose. To longitudinally characterize retinal structure and function in achromatopsia (ACHM) in preparation for clinical gene therapy trials. Methods. Thirty-eight molecularly confirmed ACHM subjects underwent serial assessments, including spectral...

Crossmodal Integration: A Glimpse into the Development of Sensory Remapping (2014)
Journal Article
Nardini, M., Dekker, T., & Petrini, K. (2014). Crossmodal Integration: A Glimpse into the Development of Sensory Remapping. Current Biology, 24(11), R532-R534. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.2014.04.034

Correctly localising sensory stimuli in space is a formidable challenge for the newborn brain. A new study provides a first glimpse into how human brain mechanisms for sensory remapping develop in the first year of life.

When vision is not an option: children's integration of auditory and haptic information is suboptimal (2014)
Journal Article
Petrini, K., Remark, A., Smith, L., & Nardini, M. (2014). When vision is not an option: children's integration of auditory and haptic information is suboptimal. Developmental Science, 17(3), 376-387. https://doi.org/10.1111/desc.12127

When visual information is available, human adults, but not children, have been shown to reduce sensory uncertainty by taking a weighted average of sensory cues. In the absence of reliable visual information (e.g. extremely dark environment, visual d...

Weighted cue integration in the rodent head direction system (2014)
Journal Article
Knight, R., Piette, C., Page, H., Walters, D., Marozzi, E., Nardini, M., …Jeffery, K. (2014). Weighted cue integration in the rodent head direction system. Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 369(1635), Article 20120512. https://doi.org/10.1098/rstb.2012.0512

How the brain combines information from different sensory modalities and of differing reliability is an important and still-unanswered question. Using the head direction (HD) system as a model, we explored the resolution of conflicts between landmark... Read More about Weighted cue integration in the rodent head direction system.
