Journal ArticleDOI

Functional magnetic resonance imaging of human visual cortex during face matching: a comparison with positron emission tomography

TL;DR: Results show that PET and fMRI identify functional areas with similar anatomical locations and reveals interindividual variation in the anatomical location of higher-level processing areas with greater anatomical precision.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of prefrontal cortex in working memory: examining the contents of consciousness.

TL;DR: Evidence from brain-imaging studies that prefrontal cortex shows sustained activity during the delay period of visual working memory tasks, indicating that this cortex maintains on-line representations of stimuli after they are removed from view is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Connections of inferior temporal areas TE and TEO with medial temporal- lobe structures in infant and adult monkeys

TL;DR: The results indicate the existence of projections in infant monkeys from inferior temporal areas to the amygdala, perirhinal cortex, and parahippocampal cortex that are either totally eliminated in adults or more refined in their distribution.
Journal ArticleDOI

Scene-Selective Cortical Regions in Human and Nonhuman Primates

TL;DR: A homologous neural architecture for scene- selective regions in visual cortex of humans and nonhuman primates, analogous to the face-selective regions demonstrated earlier in these two species are suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI

Brain regions involved in recognizing facial emotion or identity: an oxygen-15 PET study.

TL;DR: Results suggest that the higher order functional neural network for recognizing emotion in visual input likely involves the right anterior cingulate and the bilateral inferior frontal gyri.
