Functional MRI reveals compromised neural integrity of the face processing network in congenital prosopagnosia. [PDF]

Curr Biol, 2009
SummaryThe summed activity of multiple nodes of a distributed cortical network supports face recognition in humans, including “core” ventral occipitotemporal cortex (VOTC) regions [1–3], and “extended” regions outside VOTC [4, 5].

Rehabilitation of face-processing skills in an adolescent with prosopagnosia : evaluation of an online perceptual training programme [PDF]

, 2015
In this paper we describe the case of EM, a female adolescent who acquired prosopagnosia following encephalitis at the age of eight. Initial neuropsychological and eye-movement investigations indicated that EM had profound difficulties in face perception

Semantic information can facilitate covert face recognition in congenital prosopagnosia

, 2016
People with congenital prosopagnosia have never developed the ability to accurately recognize faces. This single case investigation systematically investigates covert and overt face recognition in C., a 69 year-old woman with congenital prosopagnosia ...

Super‐Recognisers show an advantage for other race face identification

Applied Cognitive Psychology, Volume 34, Issue 1, Page 205-216, January/February 2020., 2020
Summary The accurate identification of an unfamiliar individual from a face photo is a critical factor in several applied situations (e.g., border control). Despite this, matching faces to photographic ID is highly prone to error. In lieu of effective training measures, which could reduce face matching errors, the selection of “super‐recognisers” (SRs)

Structural connectivity in a single case of progressive prosopagnosia: The role of the right inferior longitudinal fasciculus [PDF]

, 2012
Progressive prosopagnosia (PP) is a clinical syndrome characterized by a progressive and selective inability to recognize and identify faces of familiar people. Here we report a patient (G.S.) with PP, mainly related to a prominent deficit in recognition

Early Brain Damage Affects Body Schema and Person Perception Abilities in Children and Adolescents with Spastic Diplegia

Neural Plasticity, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
Early brain damage leading to cerebral palsy is associated to core motor impairments and also affects cognitive and social abilities. In particular, previous studies have documented specific alterations of perceptual body processing and motor cognition that are associated to unilateral motor deficits in hemiplegic patients.

Brain Signals of Face Processing as Revealed by Event‐Related Potentials

Behavioural Neurology, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
We analyze the functional significance of different event‐related potentials (ERPs) as electrophysiological indices of face perception and face recognition, according to cognitive and neurofunctional models of face processing. Initially, the processing of faces seems to be supported by early extrastriate occipital cortices and revealed by modulations ...

Long‐Term Memory Search across the Visual Brain

Neural Plasticity, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
Signal transmission from the human retina to visual cortex and connectivity of visual brain areas are relatively well understood. How specific visual perceptions transform into corresponding long‐term memories remains unknown. Here, I will review recent Blood Oxygenation Level‐Dependent functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (BOLD fMRI) in humans ...

Vision After Early-Onset Lesions of the Occipital Cortex: I. Neuropsychological and Psychophysical Studies

Neural Plasticity, Volume 9, Issue 1, Page 1-25, 2002., 2002
We analyzed the visual functions of two patients (MS, FJ) with bilateral lesion of the primary visual cortex, which occurred at gestational age 33 wk in MS and at postnatal month 7 in FJ. In both patients basic visual functions— visual acuity, contrast sensitivity, color, form, motion perception—are similarly preserved or modestly impaired.

Impairment of the face processing network in congenital prosopagnosia

Frontiers in Bioscience, 2014
The goal of the current paper is to review recent findings concerning the neural basis of congenital prosopagnosia (CP), a lifelong impairment in face processing that occurs in the absence of explicit brain damage. As such, CP offers a unique model for exploring the psychological and neural bases of normal face processing.
