Stimulus representations in body-selective regions of the macaque cortex assessed with event-related fMRI

► Two macaque STS regions activated by bodies compared to well-controlled objects ► Macaque body patches (bodies-objects) partially overlap face patches (faces-objects). ► Macaque body patches primarily distinguish faces vs other objects, including bodies. ► Middle STS body patch activation patterns distinguish bodies, objects and faces. ► Macaque body patches show selectivity for different body subclasses.
