Face Processing in Developmental Prosopagnosia: Altered Neural Representations in the Fusiform Face Area

Face Processing in Developmental Prosopagnosia: Altered Neural Representations in the Fusiform Face Area

Rationale: Face expertise is a pivotal social skill. Developmental prosopagnosia (DP), i.e., the inability to recognize faces without a history of brain damage, affects about 2% of the general population, and is a renowned model system of the face-processing network. Within this network, the right F...
