During perception (left), neurons in the anterior ventral temporal cortex (aVTC) are primarily activated by bottom-up visual input, while the effect of top-down regulation from the orbitofrontal ...

Meanwhile, activity in a region called the ventral temporal cortex (VTC), above the ears, codes whether a picture contains inanimate or animate objects. And activity in the orbitofrontal cortices ...

Functional MRI (fMRI), intracranial and neuropsychological studies have implicated three main regions in these computations: the left posterior temporal cortex, the left anterior temporal cortex ...
