Abstract
⺠The N170 ERP component is larger for face stimuli compared to objects. ⺠We assessed the face-selectivity of the N170 in five patients with prosopagnosia. ⺠Neither anterior temporal, nor FFA lesions, affected face-selectivity of the N170. ⺠Face-selectivity was absent in two patients with lesions to the OFA and FFA. ⺠We conclude that the N170 requires at least two parts of the core face network.
