Visual perception and attention and their neurochemical and microstructural brain correlates in healthy and pathological ageing
Visual perception and attention declines with normal ageing, however their neural and cognitive
mechanisms in healthy and pathological ageing are yet to be fully understood. This thesis aimed to provide
a characterisation of normal age-related differences across the visual perception and attention hierarchy,
identify their underlying neural correlates, and assess how normal ageing contrasts with pathological ageing
