灵长类动物的面部处理依赖于由面部选择神经元组成的相互连接的面部选择区域的分布式网络。在人类和猕猴中，该网络被分为腹侧流和背侧流，人类和猕猴的功能相似性表明它们是同源的。人脸检测、整体处理、人脸空间和人脸处理的其他关键特性的神经关联已经在单个神经元水平上被确定，并且提供因果证据的研究已经坚定地确立了人脸选择脑区是人脸处理的核心。这些机制使我们能够高度准确地识别熟悉的面孔，但也使我们在识别不熟悉的面孔时容易出错。人脸识别系统的这种局限性对诸如目击者识别和警务等后续情况具有重要意义。
Primate face processing depends on a distributed network of interlinked face-selective areas composed of face-selective neurons. In both humans and macaques, the network is divided into a ventral stream and a dorsal stream, and the functional similarities of the areas in humans and macaques indicate they are homologous. Neural correlates for face detection, holistic processing, face space, and other key properties of human face processing have been identified at the single neuron level, and studies providing causal evidence have firmly established that face-selective brain areas are central to face processing. These mechanisms give rise to our highly accurate familiar face recognition but also to our error prone performance with unfamiliar faces. This limitation of the face system has important implications for consequential situations such as eyewitness identification and policing.
