recognition tasks. We review scientific progress in understanding human face processing …

The functional neuroanatomy of human face perception

K Grill-Spector, KS Weiner, K Kay… - Annual review of vision …, 2017 - annualreviews.org
Face perception is critical for normal social functioning and is mediated by a network of
regions in the ventral visual stream. In this review, we describe recent neuroimaging findings …

Apparent thinning of human visual cortex during childhood is associated with myelination

VS Natu, J Gomez, M Barnett, B Jeska… - Proceedings of the …, 2019 - National Acad Sciences

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 …

The representation of two-body shapes in the human visual cortex

E Abassi, L Papeo - Journal of Neuroscience, 2020 - Soc Neuroscience
Human social nature has shaped visual perception. A signature of the relationship between
vision and sociality is a particular visual sensitivity to social entities such as faces and …

Development differentially sculpts receptive fields across early and high-level human visual cortex

J Gomez, V Natu, B Jeska, M Barnett… - Nature …, 2018 - nature.com
Receptive fields (RFs) processing information in restricted parts of the visual field are a key
property of visual system neurons. However, how RFs develop in humans is unknown …

Extensive childhood experience with Pokémon suggests eccentricity drives organization of visual cortex

J Gomez, M Barnett, K Grill-Spector - Nature human behaviour, 2019 - nature.com
