Circadian rhythm dysfunction in glaucoma: A hypothesis
The absence of circadian zeitgebers in the social environment causes circadian misalignment, which is often associated with sleep disturbances. Circadian misalignment, defined as a mismatch between the sleep-wake cycle and the timing of the circadian ...

Interhemispheric transfer and the processing of foveally presented stimuli [PDF]
A review of the literature shows that the LVF and the RVF do not overlap. This means that foveal representations of words are effectively split and that interhemispheric communication is needed to recognise centrally presented ...
