1. Optimal Use of Peripheral Vision
Abstract : People who lose their central vision have to rely on their peripheral vision for all visual tasks. The ability to resolve fine details in the periphery is reduced due to retinal limitations and the optical aberrations arising from the use of off-axis vision. READ MORE

2. Eyewitness testimonies : The memory and meta-memory effects of retellings and discussions with non-witnesses
Abstract : This thesis investigated the effects of eyewitnesses retellings and discussions with non-witnesses on the eyewitness memory and meta-memory judgments. In Study I, the effect of eyewitness discussions with non-witnesses (persons who had not experienced the event) on eyewitness memory and meta-memory realism for the overall information about an event was investigated.

3. How social influence affects children’s witness reports
Abstract : Eyewitnesses to criminal events often discuss their experiences with each other. This can have serious consequences considering the fact that information received from others can have a detrimental effect on people’s memory reports. READ MORE

4. Computer Simulation of the Neural Control of Locomotion in the Cat
Abstract : Locomotion is one of the most important behaviours and requires interaction between sensors at various levels of the nervous system and the limb muscles of an animal. The basic neural rhythm for locomotion in mammals has been shown to arise from local neural networks residing in the spinal cord and these networks are known as central pattern generators (CPGs).

5. Infrared Neural Modulation: Photothermal Effects on Cortex Neurons Using Infrared Laser Heating
Abstract : It would be of great value to have a precise and non-damaging neuromodulation technique in the field of basic neuroscience research and for clinical treatment of neurological diseases. Infrared neural modulation (INM) is a new modulation modality developed in the last decade, which uses pulsed or continues infrared (IR) light with a wavelength of 1200 to 2200 nm to directly alter neural signals.
