HUMAN FACE PERCEPTION
Research | Team | Collaborations | Publications |
RESEARCH
Our goal is to understand how the human brain recognizes people by their face.
We tackle this question in healthy humans (children and adults) as well as in brain-damaged patients, at multiple levels:
- behavioral responses and eye movements,
- hemodynamic brain responses (techniques: functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging, fMRI),
- neurophysiological responses (techniques: intra- and extra-cerebral electroencephalogram),
- brain stimulation (techniques: intracerebral electrical stimulation and transcranial magnetic stimulation, TMS).
