Abstract
Prosopometamorphopsia (PMO) is a disorder characterized by face perception distortions. People with PMO see facial features that appear to melt, stretch, and change size and position. I'll discuss research on PMO carried out by my lab and others that sheds light on the cognitive and neural organization of face perception. https://facedistortion.faceblind.org/
