Article Synopsis
  • Humans can categorize visual information into specific groups, with previous fMRI studies highlighting how the brain distinguishes between broad categories (like animate vs. inanimate) and individual objects.
  • Recent research used fMRI coupled with multiple examples of 48 different mammals to examine this further, aiming to clarify the distinctions between fine-grained and coarse-scale representations.
  • The findings suggest fMRI primarily captures visual-specific and general category information, but it can also identify subtle differences between individual objects, challenging earlier assumptions about the level of detail provided by fMRI data.
