“…In further support of this claim, iEEG evidence suggests human amygdala neurons encode events in dissociated segments, organized individually according to category-based or object-based stimulus features (Gelbard-Sagiv et al, 2008;Kreiman et al, 2000a;Paz et al, 2010;Quiroga et al, 2007Quiroga et al, , 2005 and semantic/affective meaning (Naccache et al, 2005;Pedreira et al, 2010;Quian Quiroga et al, 2009). Several single-neuron studies illustrate the amygdala's capacity to selectively encode object categories (Gelbard-Sagiv et al, 2008; Kreiman et al, 2002Kreiman et al, , 2000aMormann et al, 2008;Pourtois, Spinelli, et al, 2010), individual objects (Kreiman et al, 2002;Quiroga et al, 2005, Quian Quiroga et al, 2009, and abstract concepts/images from words (Br azdil et al, 2002;Cameron et al, 2001;Halgren, Babb & Rausch, et al, 1977;Heit et al, 1988;Naccache et al, 2005).…”
