Humans' ability to rapidly and accurately detect, identify and classify faces under variable
conditions derives from a network of brain regions highly tuned to face information. The …

Visual face identification requires distinguishing between thousands of faces we know. This
computational feat involves a network of brain regions including the fusiform face area (FFA) …

A great challenge to the field of visual neuroscience is to understand how faces are encoded
and represented within the human brain. Here we show evidence from functional magnetic …

Regions of the occipital and temporal lobes, including a region in the fusiform gyrus (FG),
have been proposed to constitute a “core” visual representation system for faces, in part …

We measured the fast temporal dynamics of face processing simultaneously across the
human temporal cortex (TC) using intracranial recordings in eight participants. We found …

Faces are critical for social interactions and their recognition constitutes one of the most
important and challenging functions of the human brain. While neurons responding …

Despite ample explorations the nature of neural mechanisms underlying human expertise in
face perception is still undetermined. Here we examined the response of two …

Face-selective neural responses in the human fusiform gyrus have been widely examined.
However, their causal role in human face perception is largely unknown. Here, we used a …

It is widely assumed that the fusiform face area (FFA), a brain region specialized for face
perception, is not involved in processing emotional expressions. This assumption is based …

Expertise in processing faces is a cornerstone of human social interaction. However, the
developmental course of many key brain regions supporting face preferential processing in …
