Prosopagnoisa

Prosopagnosia, also known as face blindness, involves abnormalities in a region called the fusiform face area (FFA), located in the temporal lobe. Dysfunction or damage to the FFA can result in the inability to recognize familiar faces. Moreover, the FFA establishes connections to other brain regions like the amygdala, which can add emotional valance to seeing faces, and the hippocampus, which can serve in the long term recognition of faces.
