12 Magic in the brain: ventral visual cortex NOTE: This is only a coarse description of the circuit Many (most?) connections are still probably missing We do not understand the functional role for most of the connections Felleman and Van Essen. Cerebral Cortex 1991

13 Neocortical circuits can be quite specific - Unable to visually recognize friends, famous people, relatives, even self - Could not learn to recognize new faces (but could learn to recognize new people from voice and other cues) - Normal language, memory, learning, non-face object recognition - Many normal visual functions Distribution of lesion sites in cases of face agnosia Damasio et al. Face agnosia and the neural substrates of memory. Annual Review of Neuroscience (1990). 13:89-109

75 Action potentials versus field potentials Ac8on poten8als Field poten8als Neurons communicate via ac-on poten-als The biophysics underlying ac-on poten-als is rela-vely well understood Typically, ac-on poten-als show stronger specificity than field poten-als Ul-mately, our computa-onal models are inspired by and neurons and synapses. The models in turn make predic-ons about neurons and synapses We can examine areas currently not studied with ac-on poten-als in the human brain We can sample a large number of brain areas Spa-al scale of ~0.5 to 20 mm High signal- to- noise ra-o Strong temporal stability Comparable trial- to- trial variability to ac-on poten-als Biophysics less clearly understood
