Abstract: In this study we longitudinally investigated the rate of microstructural alterations in the occipital cortex in different stages of Huntington’s disease (HD) by applying an automated atlas-based approach to diffusion MRI data. Twenty-two premanifest (preHD),… read more here.

Abstract: Processing of low-level visual information shows robust developmental gains through childhood and adolescence. However, it is unknown whether low-level visual processing in the occipital cortex supports age-related gains in memory for complex visual stimuli. Here,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.schres.2020.03.020
Abstract: Schizophrenia has long been associated with dysfunction in visual perception. One important region underlying this is lateral occipital cortex (LOC), a mid-level visual region critical for object recognition. Although LOC of patients has exhibited structural… read more here.
