Both mOTS-words and pOTS-words prefer emoji stimuli over text stimuli during a lexical judgment task

The OTS-words subregions prefer emoji stimuli over text stimuli during lexical judgment tasks, suggesting their flexibility in assigning semantic meaning to visual input.

Both mOTS-words and pOTS-words prefer emoji stimuli over text stimuli during a reading task

OTS-words subregions, crucial for reading, are flexibly recruited to encode semantic meaning in readable visual stimuli, not just text.

Event-related brain potential markers of visual and auditory perception: A useful tool for brain computer interface systems

Event-related brain potentials (ERPs) can accurately discriminate perceptual categories in visual and auditory stimuli, potentially improving brain-computer interface systems.

Developmental changes within the extended face processing network: A cross‐sectional functional magnetic resonance imaging study

Children show increased activity in the extended face processing system compared to adults, with a developmental decrease in activity and a rightward migration of face-related IFG activation.

Hemispheric Asymmetry in Visual Processing: An ERP Study on Spatial Frequency Gratings

Left hemispheric advantage in visual processing of local elements is observed in healthy right-handed volunteers, suggesting a sensory nature of this hemispheric asymmetry.
