Is human face recognition lateralized to the right hemisphere due to neural competition with left-lateralized visual word recognition? A critical review

B Rossion, A Lochy - Brain Structure and Function, 2022 - Springer
The right hemispheric lateralization of face recognition, which is well documented and
appears to be specific to the human species, remains a scientific mystery. According to a …

Cortical route for facelike pattern processing in human newborns

M Buiatti, E Di Giorgio, M Piazza… - Proceedings of the …, 2019 - National Acad Sciences

adults, is supported by a set of face-specific cortical patches. Human newborns, already …

Uncovering the neural magnitude and spatio-temporal dynamics of natural image categorization in a fast visual stream

TL Retter, B Rossion - Neuropsychologia, 2016 - Elsevier
Perceptual categorization occurs rapidly under natural viewing conditions. Yet, the neural
spatio-temporal dynamics of category-selective processes to single-glanced, natural (ie …

Single neuron responses underlying face recognition in the human midfusiform face-selective cortex

Harmonic amplitude summation for frequency-tagging analysis

TL Retter, B Rossion, C Schiltz - Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience, 2021 - direct.mit.edu
In the approach of frequency tagging, stimuli that are presented periodically generate
periodic responses of the brain. Following a transformation into the frequency domain, the …

Understanding human individuation of unfamiliar faces with oddball fast periodic visual stimulation and electroencephalography

B Rossion, TL Retter… - European Journal of …, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
