Primates exhibit a remarkable ability to rapidly and accurately recognize visual objects in their central field of view. Based on accurate estimates of object identity from neural population activity and the object-specific behavioral deficits observed after cortical perturbation, previous work has identified the primate ventral visual cortex as a critical brain circuit for core object recognition. In addition, our recent work has demonstrated that the ventrolateral prefrontal cortex (vlPFC; recurrently connected to the ventral stream) is also critical for robust object recognition. In this st
