Congenital prosopagnosia: A case report [PDF]
Dementia & Neuropsychologia, 2011 Prosopagnosia is a visual agnosia characterized by an inability to recognize previously known human faces and to learn new faces. The aim of this study was to present a forty-six year-old woman with congenital prosopagnosia, and to discuss the neural ...

Impairments of biological motion perception in congenital prosopagnosia. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 Prosopagnosia is a deficit in recognizing people from their faces. Acquired prosopagnosia results after brain damage, developmental or congenital prosopagnosia (CP) is not caused by brain lesion, but has presumably been present from early childhood ...

Face Perception and Test Reliabilities in Congenital Prosopagnosia in Seven Tests [PDF]
i-Perception, 2016 Congenital prosopagnosia, the innate impairment in recognizing faces, is a very heterogeneous disorder with different phenotypical manifestations. To investigate the nature of prosopagnosia in more detail, we tested 16 prosopagnosics and 21 controls with

The early time course of compensatory face processing in congenital prosopagnosia. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 BACKGROUND: Prosopagnosia is a selective deficit in facial identification which can be either acquired, (e.g., after brain damage), or present from birth (congenital).

Altered topology of neural circuits in congenital prosopagnosia [PDF]
eLife, 2017 Using a novel, fMRI-based inter-subject functional correlation (ISFC) approach, which isolates stimulus-locked inter-regional correlation patterns, we compared the cortical topology of the neural circuit for face processing in participants with an ...

Investigating the features of the M170 in congenital prosopagnosia [PDF]
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2012 Face perception generates specific neural activity as early as 170 ms post-stimulus onset, termed the M170 when measured with Magnetoencephalography (MEG).

The background of reduced face specificity of N170 in congenital prosopagnosia. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Congenital prosopagnosia is lifelong face-recognition impairment in the absence of evidence for structural brain damage. To study the neural correlates of congenital prosopagnosia, we measured the face-sensitive N170 component of the event-related ...

The 170ms Response to Faces as Measured by MEG (M170) Is Consistently Altered in Congenital Prosopagnosia. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Modularity of face processing is still a controversial issue. Congenital prosopagnosia (cPA), a selective and lifelong impairment in familiar face recognition without evidence of an acquired cerebral lesion, offers a unique opportunity to support this ...

Do congenital prosopagnosia and the other-race effect affect the same face recognition mechanisms? [PDF]
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014 Congenital prosopagnosia, an innate impairment in recognizing faces, as well as the other-race effect, a disadvantage in recognizing faces of foreign races, both affect face recognition abilities.

Galactose uncovers face recognition and mental images in congenital prosopagnosia: The first case report [PDF]
Nutritional Neuroscience, 2014 A woman in her early 40s with congenital prosopagnosia and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder observed for the first time sudden and extensive improvement of her face recognition abilities, mental imagery, and sense of navigation after galactose ...
