Popis: To study how the amygdala and hippocampus encode the content of fixations when viewing faces, Cao et al. employ single-neuron recordings with simultaneous eye tracking when human participants viewed natural face stimuli. They demonstrate a link between eye movement and neural face processing to provide mechanistic insight for human face perception.
