Description
How do we recognise faces? What part of the brain helps us discern a stranger from a friend? And could you be a Super Recogniser?
In this focus episode of How We’re Wired, join producer Dr Eva Higginbotham as she explores the science of facial recognition, from face blindness to the brains of those who are exceptional at recalling faces, and the tests you can do to discover if you have the skill.
With special thanks to Josh Davis.
