Delayed response to animate implied motion in human motion processing areas (2006)
Journal Article
Lorteije, J. A., Kenemans, J. L., Jellema, T., van der Lubbe, R. H., de Heer, F., & van Wezel, R. J. (2006). Delayed response to animate implied motion in human motion processing areas. Journal of cognitive neuroscience, 18(2), 158-168. https://doi.org/10.1162/jocn.2006.18.2.158

Viewing static photographs of objects in motion evokes higher fMRI activation in the human medial temporal complex ( MT+) than looking at similar photographs without this implied motion. As MT+ is traditionally thought to be involved in motion percep... Read More about Delayed response to animate implied motion in human motion processing areas.

Genetic evidence for female-biased dispersal and gene flow in a polygynous primate (2006)
Journal Article
Hammond, R. L., Handley, L. J. L., Winney, B. J., Bruford, M. W., & Perrin, N. (2006). Genetic evidence for female-biased dispersal and gene flow in a polygynous primate. Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 273(1585), 479-484. https://doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2005.3257

Many models of sex-biased dispersal predict that the direction of sex-bias depends upon a species' mating system. In agreement with this, almost all polygynous mammals show male-biased dispersal whereas largely monogamous birds show female-biased dis...

This paper explores an underresearched issue within the reproductive health of women — the discursive construction of self‐examination instruction in sexual health clinics. The study utilises Foucault's work on ‘productive power’, the ‘practices of t... Read More about Productive power and the 'practices of the self' in contraceptive counselling.

Advantages of 3D methods for face recognition research in humans (2005)
Journal Article
Liu, C., & Ward, J. (2005). Advantages of 3D methods for face recognition research in humans. Lecture notes in computer science, 3723, 244 - 254

Research on face recognition in humans has mainly relied on 2D images. This approach has certain limitations.
