Miller Laboratory
Perceptual and Clinical Neuroscience
Welcome to the Miller Lab
Our lab conducts perceptual and clinical neuroscience research at all levels from discovery through translation and implementation, focusing on visual neuroscience, consciousness, mood disorders, pain disorders, and other psychiatric and neurological disorders.
We're part of the Monash Biomedicine Discovery Institute, and a member of the Neuroscience Program
and the Department of Physiology.

Our research
Our research focuses on mechanisms, individual differences, genetics and clinical applications of a visual phenomenon - binocular rivalry. Our mechanistic model of binocular rivalry - the interhemispheric switch model - is also a key aspect of our pathophysiological model of bipolar disorder - the sticky switch model, and we are engaged in various approaches to further examining these two mechanistic models. We are also examining a simple, inexpensive and safe brain stimulation technique - vestibular neuromodulation - as a treatment for persistent pain states, mood disorders and other psychiatric and neurological disorders. Another focus of the lab is the scientific and theoretical study of visual and phenomenal consciousness. In addition to our discovery and translational research, a recent implementation focus has been development of a neuroscience-informed model of care for persistent pain management.
