This project is internationally competitive, asking basic biological questions about the brain and vision. Of direct national benefit, the new knowledge generated may alter the way we understand how vision works. Ultimately this knowledge may give insight into particular health issues, such as the persistence of visual memory in Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, and age related diseases such as Alzheimer's disease. Further this new knowledge will flow directly into the reputation of our major institutes of higher education and strengthen their place on the world stage. Through both CIs, this research will contribute to the education of both undergraduate and postgraduate science students at The University of Melbourne.

该项目具有国际竞争力，询问有关大脑和视觉的基本生物学问题。从直接的国家利益来看，产生的新知识可能会改变我们对视觉运作方式的理解。最终，这些知识可能会让我们深入了解特定的健康问题，例如创伤后应激障碍中视觉记忆的持续性，以及与年龄相关的疾病，如阿尔茨海默病。此外，这些新知识将直接流入我们主要高等教育机构的声誉，并加强他们在世界舞台上的地位。通过这两个CI，这项研究将有助于在墨尔本大学本科和研究生理科学生的教育。
