Infants have rich visual categories in ventrotemporal cortex at 2 months of age - Nature Neuroscience
Using infant fMRI, the authors show that, by 2 months of age, representations in high-level visual cortex encode visual categories that align with deep neural networks, and lateral object-selective re...
