The perception and mimicry of facial movements predict judgments of smile authenticity. [PDF]
The mechanisms through which people perceive different types of smiles and judge their authenticity remain unclear. Here, 19 different types of smiles were created based on the Facial Action Coding System (FACS), using highly controlled, dynamic avatar ...

SOMATOTOPY OF THE FACIAL NUCLEUS: A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS WITH CLINICAL REMARKS [PDF]
Stemming from our previous studies regarding somatotopy of the spinal cord, oculomotor complex and trigeminal complex, we developed this study of the somatotopy of facial nuclei to compare the musculotopic organization of the facial nucleus in different ...

Thermal Analysis of Facial Muscles Contractions
Facial expressions can be systematically coded using the Facial Action Coding System (FACS) that describes the specific action unit (AU) or combination of AUs elicited during different kinds of expressions. This study investigated the thermal patterns concomitant to specific action units performance.

Magnetic resonance imaging of facial muscles
Facial and tongue muscles are commonly involved in patients with neuromuscular disorders. However, these muscles are not as easily accessible for biopsy and pathological examination as limb muscles. We have previously investigated myasthenia gravis patients with MuSK antibodies for facial and tongue muscle atrophy using different magnetic resonance ...
