Manatee Brain
Vis = visual cortex; Aud = auditory cortex; SI = main somatosensory cortex; SII = second somatosensory cortex; MI = main motor cortex. The drawing of the manatee brain shown above indicates the sensory and motor areas of cerebral cortex as suggested by the external morphology as well as by the microscopic appearance of the manatee cortex. ...

Exploratorium Magazine: The Body: fMRI: page 2
For example, Kanwisher, who studies how we see things, has demonstrated that one region of the visual cortex is activated when a person is shown a picture of a place, but that a completely different ... or a foe. It's also possible that facial recognition is simply very different from every other visual task and needs a highly specialized area. Or maybe we just look at faces so much more ...

Exploratorium Magazine: The Body: fMRI: page 3
Electroencephalograms (EEGs), recordings of the brain's electrical signals made by attaching electrodes to the scalp, have helped researchers identify large, generalized regions of the brain, such as the temporal lobe and visual cortex. But the sensitivity of an EEG is limited to synchronous firing in large groups of neurons, and it has poor ...
