Early left-hemispheric dysfunction of face processing in congenital prosopagnosia: an MEG study. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2008 BACKGROUND: Congenital prosopagnosia is a severe face perception impairment which is not acquired by a brain lesion and is presumably present from birth. It manifests mostly by an inability to recognise familiar persons. Electrophysiological research has

Binocular rivalry reveals differential face processing in congenital prosopagnosia [PDF]
Scientific ReportsCongenital Prosopagnosia (CP) is an innate impairment in face perception with heterogeneous characteristics. It is still unclear if and to what degree holistic processing of faces is disrupted in CP.

Behavioural dissociation between emotional and non-emotional facial expressions in congenital prosopagnosia [PDF]
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014 Neuropsychological and neuroimaging studies have shown that facial recognition and emotional expressions are dissociable. However, it is unknown if a single system supports the processing of emotional and non-emotional facial expressions.

Frequency-specific neural abnormalities in congenital prosopagnosia revealed by magnetoencephalography during face perception [PDF]
Scientific ReportsCongenital prosopagnosia (CP) is characterized by lifelong impairment in face recognition despite intact basic visual processing. While previous studies have demonstrated preserved “core” face processing with disrupted information propagation to ...

Deficits in long-term recognition memory reveal dissociated subtypes in congenital prosopagnosia. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 The study investigates long-term recognition memory in congenital prosopagnosia (CP), a lifelong impairment in face identification that is present from birth.

Multi-voxel pattern analysis (MVPA) reveals abnormal fMRI activity in both the core and extended face network in congenital prosopagnosia [PDF]
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014 The ability to identify faces is mediated by a network of cortical and subcortical brain regions in humans. It is still a matter of debate which regions represent the functional substrate of congenital prosopagnosia (CP), a condition characterized by a ...

The role of gamma-band activity in the representation of faces: reduced activity in the fusiform face area in congenital prosopagnosia. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 BackgroundCongenital prosopagnosia (CP) describes an impairment in face processing that is presumably present from birth. The neuronal correlates of this dysfunction are still under debate.

Assessment of Developmental Prosopagnosia in an Individual with Tourette Syndrome and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder: A Case Report [PDF]
Brain SciencesBackground/Objectives: Prosopagnosia is the inability to recognize people by their faces. Developmental prosopagnosia is the hereditary or congenital variant of the condition.

Gaze dynamics toward familiar and unfamiliar faces in prosopagnosia [PDF]
Scientific ReportsRecognizing familiar faces is typically fast and automatic in neurotypical individuals but is markedly impaired in congenital prosopagnosia (CP) – a lifelong face recognition deficit without apparent brain injury.
