Description of CE Program/Activity
 The ventral stream is commonly known as the what pathway of perception; these are pathways that carry information related to object form and recognition through the brain. Ventral stream functions, which play a critical role in development and functioning, are frequently impacted in individuals with cortical/cerebral visual impairments. Dr. Corinna Bauer explains multiple aspects of face and object perception and recognition, as localized to particular regions in the temporal lobe. Through this discussion, participants explore how to determine which aspects are easy and which are challenging for each individual with CVI, in order to better target interventions.
