摘要： I'll discuss recent work done in my lab that investigates face and body processing in individuals with visual agnosias following brain damage. These studies investigate 1) the effect of a lesion to the right fusiform face area on the functioning of more anterior face-selective areas, 2) the effect of a lesion to the right fusiform body area on body perception, 3) how relatively pure acquired prosopagnosics perform in greeble training designed to develop object expertise, and 4) the whether cognitive profiles in acquired prosopagnosia are consistent with a model of facial trait perception.
