Face perception, perhaps the most highly developed visual skill in humans, is mediated by a
distributed neural system in humans that is comprised of multiple, bilateral regions. We …

Gaze is an important component of social interaction. The function, evolution and
neurobiology of gaze processing are therefore of interest to a number of researchers. This …

Social perception refers to initial stages in the processing of information that culminates in
the accurate analysis of the dispositions and intentions of other individuals. Single-cell …

Brothers (Brothers L. Concepts in Neuroscience 1990; 1: 27–51) proposed a network of
neural regions that comprise the “social brain”, which includes the amygdala. Since the …

The face communicates an impressive amount of visual information. We use it to identify its
owner, how they are feeling and to help us understand what they are saying. Models of face …

Background: Integrating information from the different senses markedly enhances the
detection and identification of external stimuli. Compared with unimodal inputs, semantically …

Understanding how biological visual systems recognize objects is one of the ultimate goals
in computational neuroscience. From the computational viewpoint of learning, different …

Evidence from various fields that suggests humans have a specialized neural system
dedicated to perceiving another's eyes and detecting the direction in which they are gazing …

A novel population of cells is described, located in the anterior part of the superior temporal
sulcus (STSa, sometimes called STPa) of the temporal lobe in the macaque monkey. These …

Three experiments were carried out with 4 to 5-month-old infants using the eye gaze cueing
paradigm of Hood, Willen, and Driver (1998). Experiment 1 replicated the previous finding …
