Focal electrical intracerebral stimulation of a face-sensitive area causes transient prosopagnosia

J Jonas, M Descoins, L Koessler, S Colnat-Coulbois… - Neuroscience, 2012 - Elsevier

The roles of “face” and “non-face” areas during individual face perception: evidence by fMRI adaptation in a brain-damaged prosopagnosic patient

L Dricot, B Sorger, C Schiltz, R Goebel, B Rossion - Neuroimage, 2008 - Elsevier
Two regions in the human occipito-temporal cortex respond preferentially to faces:'the
fusiform face area'('FFA') and the 'occipital face area'('OFA'). Whether these areas have a …
