TitleMorgan, Michael John: certificate of election to the Royal Society
CitationMichael Morgan is an Experimental Psychologist who has made noteworthy contributions to the understanding of animal learning, brain lateralisation and, particularly, visual perception. His work on early social development in rats established the critical role of social interactions in normal development of the brain and behaviour. In Vision, his work on edge detection, motion, binocular stereopsis, texture and patterns recognition has generated new computational models of vision, and he has tested these models by novel psychophysical methods. His discovery of spatio-temporal interpolation in sampled motion led to a new understanding of motion sensors as spatio-temporal filters.
