Functional and structural characterization of the macaque Middle face patch
… human brain. In this thesis we spatially map the category selective preference of 100's of multiunit sites in the cortical region localized to the fMRI face selective region with a novel X-ray imaging system. We observed evidence for an ~6mm region of cortex that was enriched with sites that …

Action-related organization of object representations in human visual cortex and topographic models
… spatial and functional principles, including category-selective areas and large-scale topographic maps structured by properties such as animacy and real-world size. In parallel, recent work has proposed a functional dissociation within OTC, with a ventral pathway supporting object recognition …

In search of functional specificity in the brain : generative models for group fMRI data
… where we consider a large space of patterns of category selectivity over 69 distinct images. The analysis successfully discovers previously characterized face, scene, and body selective areas, among a few others, as the most dominant patterns in the data. This finding suggests that our approach …

Network Dynamics of Visual Object Recognition
… primate research has identified putative category-selective regions within higher-level visual cortex, which are thought to mediate object recognition. Despite decades of study, however, the functional organization and network dynamics within these regions remain poorly understood, due to …
