Note that the topological arrangement of the animal-responsive (2, lateral fusiform gyrus) and tool-responsive (1, medial fusiform; 3, middle temporal gyrus/inferior temporal sulcus) regions for ...

The right-hemisphere activation peaked at the lateral border of the fusiform gyrus, and extended into midfusiform gyrus (thus overlapping with the activations in both Figs. 4 and Figs. 5).

On the left side of the brain, the fusiform gyrus -- an area long associated with face recognition -- carefully calculates how "facelike" an image is. The right fusiform gyrus then appears to use ...

But brain scans have revealed that one area of the cortex, the fusiform gyrus, gets much larger as we age. The fusiform gyrus is thought to play a role in recognising faces, something that adults ...

Dr Dijkstra added: "Our findings suggest that the brain uses the strength of sensory signals to distinguish between imagination and reality." The study also showed that the fusiform gyrus ...

"Learning nouns activates the left fusiform gyrus, while learning verbs switches on other regions (the left inferior frontal gyrus and part of the left posterior medial temporal gyrus)," says ...
