What Does OFA Stand For?
OFA stands for Occipital Face Area
The Occipital Face Area (OFA) is a region in the human brain located in the occipital lobe, specifically implicated in the processing of facial information. It plays a crucial role in the perception and recognition of faces, contributing to the differentiation of facial features and expressions. The OFA is considered an essential component of the neural network responsible for face perception and is often studied in the context of visual cognition and social interaction.
