title: Inferotemporal cortex and higher visual functions.
abstract: Recent studies have led to a better understanding of the mechanisms of object vision in the inferotemporal cortex. In particular, a columnar organization has been revealed, and a short-term change of responsiveness has been proposed as a neural correlate of working memory.
