Face Blindness study sheds light on typical brain function - Science Nation

The video discusses Daisha's experience with face blindness, or prozopagnosia, following a childhood accident. Psychologist Brad Duchene and his team at Dartmouth College study this condition to understand face recognition in the brain. They conduct various tests and use MRI scans to observe brain activity. The research aims to comprehend how the brain processes tasks, using face recognition as a model. Although the work may not lead to direct treatments, it provides valuable insights into brain functions.
