Human ATFP averaged across subjects. Patches in the averaged human visual cortex that were significantly more activated by faces (red-yellow) than by places (blue-cyan) are shown. Group-average activation maps are displayed on ventral (A) and lateral (B) views of the inflated right hemisphere. Spherical averaging was used for intersubject registration of anatomical surfaces and fMRI activity maps. The maps show a robust ATFP in the anterior IT cortex. Additional face areas were located along the fusiform gyrus: area FFA, the IOG–OFA, the LO, and the posterior STS. This extended network of face processing (24) also included regions in the AMG, the IFS, the OFC, and new face-responsive areas in the IPS and the PCG. The map threshold is P < 10⁻⁴.
