Vision

Deep-sea fish may look like creatures from another world, but why they have such unusual eyes seems to be the result of an evolutionary process of specialisation.

A new ultraviolet ‘television’ display has been designed to help researchers better understand how animals see the world.

A family of coral fish have developed visual adaptations similar to those of their cousins living in the ocean’s darkest depths.

An MRI-based mapping of the squid brain has developed an atlas of neural connections that could help understand their ability to camouflage.

QBI researcher Professor Justin Marshall has been recognized with an international prize for his work into the visual systems of mantis shrimps.

New vision technology could soon allow humans to take a step into the animal kingdom.

Researchers have discovered that Great Barrier Reef anemonefish can see ultraviolet light (UV) and may use it as a ‘secret channel’ to find both food and friends.

A QBI researcher exploring ‘super-human’ colour vision systems in animals has received a funding boost from the Australian Research Council (ARC).

Queensland Brain Institute researchers have discovered some types of deep-sea fish may have highly sensitive colour vision.
