Cognitive and anatomical correlates of neglect for peripersonal and extrapersonal space (2008)
Thesis
Aimola, L. (2008). Cognitive and anatomical correlates of neglect for peripersonal and extrapersonal space. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4213065

Spatial neglect is a neurological disorder where patients typically fail to orient or respond to events on their left side. Moreover, recent studies suggest that the severity of neglect may depend specifically on whether stimuli are presented within...

Thesis
Moazen, M. (2008). Investigating the biomechanics of a lizard skull using advanced computer modelling techniques with experimental validation. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4208870

Lizard skulls vary greatly in shape and construction, and radical changes in skull form during evolution have made this an intriguing subject of research. The mechanics of feeding have surely been affected by this change in skull form, but whether th...
