Journal ArticleDOI
The Angular Gyrus: Multiple Functions and Multiple Subdivisions
TL;DR: The AG emerges as a cross-modal hub where converging multisensory information is combined and integrated to comprehend and give sense to events, manipulate mental representations, solve familiar problems, and reorient attention to relevant information.
Journal ArticleDOI
A network of occipito-temporal face-sensitive areas besides the right middle fusiform gyrus is necessary for normal face processing.
Bruno Rossion,Roberto Caldara,Mohamed L. Seghier,Anne-Marie Schuller,François Lazeyras,Eugène Mayer +5 more
TL;DR: Findings show that the integrity of the right OFA is necessary for normal face perception and suggest that the face-sensitive responses observed at this level in normal subjects may arise from feedback connections from the right FFA.
Journal ArticleDOI
The voices of wrath: brain responses to angry prosody in meaningless speech
Didier Maurice Grandjean,David Sander,Gilles Pourtois,Sophie Schwartz,Mohamed L. Seghier,Mohamed L. Seghier,Klaus R. Scherer,Patrik Vuilleumier +7 more
TL;DR: Two functional magnetic resonance imaging experiments showing enhanced responses in human middle superior temporal sulcus for angry relative to neutral prosody are reported, reflecting a fundamental principle of human brain organization shared by voice and face perception.
Journal ArticleDOI
Laterality index in functional MRI: methodological issues.
TL;DR: In functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), hemispheric dominance is generally indicated by a measure called the laterality index (LI) The assessment of a meaningful LI measure depends on several methodological factors that should be taken into account when interpreting LI values or comparing between subjects as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
An anatomical signature for literacy
Manuel Carreiras,Mohamed L. Seghier,Silvia Baquero,Adelina Estévez,Alfonso Javier Lozano,Joseph T. Devlin,Cathy J. Price +6 more
TL;DR: Comparisons of structural brain scans from those who learnt to read as adults (late-literates) with those from a carefully matched set of illiterates demonstrate how the regions identified in late-literate interact during reading, relative to object naming, in early literates.
