A revisit of the amygdala theory of autism: Twenty years after
The human amygdala has long been implicated to play a key role in autism spectrum
disorder (ASD). Yet it remains unclear to what extent the amygdala accounts for the social …

Neural mechanisms of face familiarity and learning in the human amygdala and hippocampus
Recognizing familiar faces and learning new faces play an important role in social cognition.
However, the underlying neural computational mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we …

Face identity coding in the deep neural network and primate brain
A central challenge in face perception research is to understand how neurons encode face
identities. This challenge has not been met largely due to the lack of simultaneous access to …
