Cognitive response profile of the human fusiform face area as determined by MEG

E Halgren, T Raij, K Marinkovic, V Jousmäki… - Cerebral …, 2000 - academic.oup.com
Activation in or near the fusiform gyrus was estimated to faces and control stimuli. Activation
peaked at 165 ms and was strongest to digitized photographs of human faces, regardless of …

Emotional expressions evoke a differential response in the fusiform face area

B Harry, MA Williams, C Davis, J Kim - Frontiers in human …, 2013 - frontiersin.org
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 …

Face-specific processing in the human fusiform gyrus

G McCarthy, A Puce, JC Gore, T Allison - Journal of cognitive …, 1997 - direct.mit.edu
The perception of faces is sometimes regarded as a specialized task involving discrete brain
regions. In an attempt to identi $ face-specific cortex, we used functional magnetic …

Are face-responsive regions selective only for faces?

LL Chao, A Martin, JV Haxby - Neuroreport, 1999 - journals.lww.com
TO examine the specificity of face-responsive regions for face processing, we used fMRI to
measure the response of the fusiform gyrus and the superior temporal sulcus (STS) to …

Response properties of the human fusiform face area

F Tong, K Nakayama, M Moscovitch… - Cognitive …, 2000 - Taylor & Francis
We used functional magnetic resonance imaging to study the response properties of the
human fusiform face area (FFA: Kanwisher, McDermott, & Chun, 1997) to a variety of face …

Affective judgments of faces modulate early activity (∼ 160 ms) within the fusiform gyri

DA Pizzagalli, D Lehmann, AM Hendrick, M Regard… - Neuroimage, 2002 - Elsevier
Functional neuroimaging studies have implicated the fusiform gyri (FG) in structural
encoding of faces, while event-related potential (ERP) and magnetoencephalography …

Processing of facial emotion in the human fusiform gyrus

Electrophysiological and fMRI-based investigations of the ventral temporal cortex of
primates provide strong support for regional specialization for the processing of faces. These …

Face perception is mediated by a distributed cortical network

A Ishai, CF Schmidt, P Boesiger - Brain research bulletin, 2005 - Elsevier
The neural system associated with face perception in the human brain was investigated

Differential selectivity for dynamic versus static information in face-selective cortical regions

D Pitcher, DD Dilks, RR Saxe, C Triantafyllou… - Neuroimage, 2011 - Elsevier
Neuroimaging studies have identified multiple face-selective regions in human cortex but
