Journal Article
Zamboni, E., Watson, I., Stirnberg, R., Huber, L., Formisano, E., Goebel, R., Kennerley, A. J., & Morland, A. B. (2025). Mapping curvature domains in human V4 using CBV-sensitive layer-fMRI at 3T. Frontiers in Neuroscience, 19, Article 1537026. https://doi.org/10.3389/fnins.2025.1537026

Introduction:

A full understanding of how we see our world remains a fundamental research question in vision neuroscience. While topographic profiling has allowed us to identify different visual areas, the exact functional characteristics and org...

Retinotopy drives the variation in scene responses across visual field map divisions of the occipital place area (2024)
Journal Article
Scrivener, C. L., Zamboni, E., Morland, A. B., & Silson, E. H. (2024). Retinotopy drives the variation in scene responses across visual field map divisions of the occipital place area. Journal of Vision, 24(8), 1-20. https://doi.org/10.1167/jov.24.8.10

The occipital place area (OPA) is a scene-selective region on the lateral surface of human occipitotemporal cortex that spatially overlaps multiple visual field maps, as well as portions of cortex that are not currently defined as retinotopic. Here w... Read More about Retinotopy drives the variation in scene responses across visual field map divisions of the occipital place area.

The role of task on the human brain's responses to, and representation of, visual regularity defined by reflection and rotation (2024)
Journal Article
Zamboni, E., Makin, A. D., Bertamini, M., & Morland, A. B. (2024). The role of task on the human brain's responses to, and representation of, visual regularity defined by reflection and rotation. NeuroImage, 297, Article 120760. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2024.120760

Identifying and segmenting objects in an image is generally achieved effortlessly and is facilitated by the presence of symmetry: a principle of perceptual organisation used to interpret sensory inputs from the retina into meaningful representations...

Use of 31P magnetisation transfer magnetic resonance spectroscopy to measure ATP changes after 670 nm transcranial photobiomodulation in older adults (2023)
Journal Article
Fear, E. J., Torkelsen, F. H., Zamboni, E., Chen, K., Scott, M., Jeffery, G., Baseler, H., & Kennerley, A. J. (2023). Use of 31P magnetisation transfer magnetic resonance spectroscopy to measure ATP changes after 670 nm transcranial photobiomodulation in older adults. Aging Cell, 22(11), Article e14005. https://doi.org/10.1111/acel.14005

Mitochondrial function declines with age, and many pathological processes in neurodegenerative diseases stem from this dysfunction when mitochondria fail to produce the necessary energy required. Photobiomodulation (PBM), long‐wavelength light therap...

The Emergence of Tuning to Global Shape Properties of Radial Frequency Patterns in the Ventral Visual Pathway (2023)
Journal Article
Lawrence, S. J., Zamboni, E., Vernon, R. J., Gouws, A. D., Wade, A. R., & Morland, A. B. (2023). The Emergence of Tuning to Global Shape Properties of Radial Frequency Patterns in the Ventral Visual Pathway. Journal of Neuroscience, 43(29), 5378-5390. https://doi.org/10.1523/JNEUROSCI.2237-22.2023

Radial frequency (RF) patterns, created by sinusoidal modulations of a circle’s radius, are processed globally when RF is low. These closed shapes therefore offer a useful way to interrogate the human visual system for global processing of curvature....
