Researchers find visual dictionary in the brain for reading
Scientists at the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston have identified a crucial region in the temporal lobe, known as the mid-fusiform cortex, which appears to act as the brain’s visual dictionary. They found that our ability to distinguish between a real word, such as “lemur” and a nonsense word like “urmle” lies in that brain region’s information center.
