Existing models propose that primate visual cortex is divided into two functionally distinct
pathways. The ventral pathway computes the identity of an object; the dorsal pathway …

In the field of social neuroscience, major branches of research have been instrumental in
describing independent components of typical and aberrant social information processing …

Mounting evidence suggests that 'core object recognition,'the ability to rapidly recognize
objects despite substantial appearance variation, is solved in the brain via a cascade of …

Memory for people and their relationships, along with memory for social language and
social behaviors, constitutes a specific type of semantic memory termed social knowledge …

Abstract Objects constitute the fundamental currency of our consciousness: they are the
things that we perceive, remember and think about. One of the most important objects for a …

Long perceived as a primitive and poorly differentiated brain structure, the primate insular
cortex recently emerged as a highly evolved, organized and richly connected cortical hub …

A number of human brain areas showing a larger response to faces than to objects from
different categories, or to scrambled faces, have been identified in neuroimaging studies …

The use of standard anatomical templates is common in human neuroimaging, as it
facilitates data analysis and comparison across subjects and studies. For non-human …

Visual-object processing culminates in inferior temporal cortex (IT). To assess the
organization of IT, we measured functional magnetic resonance imaging responses in alert …

Extensive research has supported the existence of a specialized face-processing network
that is distinct from the visual processing areas used for general object recognition. The …
