Electrophysiological recordings on the human scalp provide a wealth of information about
the temporal dynamics and nature of face perception at a global level of brain organization …

Prosopagnosia is a selective visual agnosia characterized by the inability to recognize the
identity of faces. There are both acquired forms secondary to brain damage and …

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 …

Patient PS sustained her dramatic brain injury thirty years ago, in 1992, the same year as the
first report of a neuroimaging study of human face recognition. The present paper …

Introduction 3. How is a face perceived? 3.1. Cue saliency and the analytical view of face
perception 3.2. Holistic/configural face perception 4. How is a face not (well) perceived? The …

The sudden onset of a face image leads to a prominent face‐selective response in human
scalp electroencephalographic (EEG) recordings, peaking 170 ms after stimulus onset at …

One of the most striking pieces of evidence for a specialised face processing system in
humans is acquired prosopagnosia, ie the inability to individualise faces following brain …

Clinicians and researchers have widely believed that face processing cannot be improved in
prosopagnosia. Though more than a dozen reported studies have attempted to enhance …

In the last decade, the use of high-density electrode arrays for EEG recordings combined
with the improvements of source reconstruction algorithms has allowed the investigation of …

We introduce a sensitive method for measuring face detection thresholds rapidly,
objectively, and independently of low-level visual cues. The method is based on the swept …
