Congratulations to Professor Nancy Kanwisher! Along with Winrich Freiwald and Doris Tsao, she has received the 2024 Kavli Prize for Neuroscience in recognition of their research on how the human brain recognizes faces — the citation reads, "for the discovery of a highly localized and specialized system for representation of faces in human and non-human primate neocortex."
