  2. Superior temporal sulcus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superior_temporal_sulcus

    In the human brain, the superior temporal sulcus (STS) is the sulcus separating the superior temporal gyrus from the middle temporal gyrus in the temporal lobe of the brain.A sulcus (plural sulci) is a deep groove that curves into the largest part of the brain, the cerebrum, and a gyrus (plural gyri) is a ridge that curves outward of the cerebrum.

  3. Superior temporal gyrus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superior_temporal_gyrus

    The superior temporal gyrus (STG [1]) is one of three (sometimes two) gyri in the temporal lobe of the human brain, which is located laterally to the head, situated somewhat above the external ear. The superior temporal gyrus is bounded by: the lateral sulcus above; the superior temporal sulcus (not always present or visible) below;

  4. Occipital face area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occipital_face_area

    The OFA comprises a network of brain regions including the fusiform face area (FFA) and posterior superior temporal sulcus (STS) which support facial processing. The identification of the OFA emerged from neuroimaging studies, particularly fMRI and PET , which revealed heightened neural activity in response to facial stimuli within this ...

  8. Brodmann area 39 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brodmann_area_39

    BA39 encompasses the angular gyrus, lying near to the junction of temporal, occipital and parietal lobes. This area is also known as angular area 39 (H). It corresponds to the angular gyrus surrounding the caudal tip of the superior temporal sulcus. It is bounded dorsally approximately by the intraparietal sulcus.

  9. Two-streams hypothesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-streams_hypothesis

    In contrast to the ventral stream's auditory processing, information enters from the primary auditory cortex into the posterior superior temporal gyrus and posterior superior temporal sulcus. From there the information moves to the beginning of the dorsal pathway, which is located at the boundary of the temporal and parietal lobes near the ...
