Baker Jr., A.C. Evans, R.F. Hess ( ) Determined a cortical specialization for first- and second-order motion processing using a combined psychophysical and fmri approach. Developed and validated a novel human brain mapping method for segmentation of early visual areas using fmri. Described the properties of first- and second-order motion mechanisms in peripheral vision using psychophysics. Participated in various psychophysical and fmri studies of the human visual system. Utrecht University & Montréal Neurological Institute Advisors: Drs. A.C. Evans, W.A. van de Grind (1997) Quantified the anatomical location of human MT+ using fmri. Participated in PET and fmri research on the human pathological visual system. Utrecht University, Dept. of Comparative Physiology Advisors: Drs.
