The N170 is sensitive to long-term (personal) familiarity of a face identity
The N170 is a large deflection of the human electroencephalogram (EEG), peaking at about
170 milliseconds over the occipito-temporal cortex after the sudden onset of a face stimulus …

Intracerebral electrical stimulation to understand the neural basis of human face identity recognition
Recognizing people's identity by their faces is a key function in the human species,
supported by regions of the ventral occipito‐temporal cortex (VOTC). In the last decade …

Twenty years of investigation with the case of prosopagnosia PS to understand human face identity recognition. Part I: Function
B Rossion - Neuropsychologia, 2022 - Elsevier
Following traumatic brain injury in adulthood, Pierrette Sapey (PS) became suddenly unable
to recognize the identity of people from their faces. Thanks to her remarkable recovery of …

Intracerebral electrical stimulation of the right anterior fusiform gyrus impairs human face identity recognition
Brain regions located between the right fusiform face area (FFA) in the middle fusiform gyrus
and the temporal pole may play a critical role in human face identity recognition but their …

A neural marker of the human face identity familiarity effect
Human adults associate different views of an identity much better for familiar than for
unfamiliar faces. However, a robust and consistent neural index of this behavioral face …

Intracerebral electrical stimulation of the face-selective right lateral fusiform gyrus transiently impairs face identity recognition
Neuroimaging and intracranial electrophysiological studies have consistently shown the
largest and most consistent face-selective neural activity in the middle portion of the human …

Familiarity is familiarity is familiarity: Event-related brain potentials reveal qualitatively similar representations of personally familiar and famous faces.
Humans excel in familiar face recognition, but often find it hard to make identity judgements
of unfamiliar faces. Understanding of the factors underlying the substantial benefits of …

A robust neural familiar face recognition response in a dynamic (periodic) stream of unfamiliar faces
We present an objective and sensitive approach to measure human familiar face recognition
(FFR) across variable facial identities. Twenty-six participants viewed sequences of natural …

Identity-specific neural responses to three categories of face familiarity (own, friend, stranger) using fast periodic visual stimulation
Previous studies have focused on the modulatory effects of face familiarity on different
components of an event-related potential (ERP), but there is controversy in the literature …

When a stranger becomes a friend: Measuring the neural correlates of real-world face familiarisation
Humans can readily and effortlessly learn new faces encountered in the social environment.
