About the Speaker
Tony Morland
Professor at University of York
Tony graduated from Imperial College London in Physics in 1988 and stayed in the Physics Department to study for a doctorate in colour vision under the supervision of the late Keith Ruddock. He held post-doctoral positions at Imperial College and the Institute of Neurology, London. In 1997 he gained a Wellcome Trust Research Career Development Fellowship that allowed him to pursue neuroimaging research at Stanford University under the supervision of Brian Wandell. Following six years on the Psychology faculty at Royal Holloway University of London, he joined the faculty at the University of York's Psychology Department in 2006. At York, he has served as Head of Neuroscience for the Hull-York Medical School, Director of the York Neuroimaging Centre and the Theme Lead for Neuroscience at the York Biomedical Research Institute. His research uses brain imaging techniques to reach a greater understanding of brain-behaviour relationships in health and disease.
