Neuroscience research has examined separately how we detect human agents on the basis of their face and body (person
perception) and how we reason about their thoughts, traits or intentions (person knowledge). Neuroanatomically distinct
networks have been associated with person perception and person knowledge, but it remains unknown how multiple
features of a person (e.g. thin and kind) are linked to form a holistic identity representation. In this fMRI experiment, we
investigated the hypothesis that when encountering another person specialised person perception circuits would be
functionally coupled with circuits involved in person knowledge. In a factorial design, we paired bodies or names with
trait-based or neutral statements, and independent localiser scans identified body-selective and mentalising networks.
When observing a body paired with a trait-implying statement, functional connectivity analyses demonstrated that
body-selective patches in bilateral fusiformgyri were functionally coupled with nodes of the mentalising network. We
demonstrate that when forming a representation of a person circuits for representing another person’s physical
appearance are linked to circuits that are engaged when reasoning about trait-based character. These data support the view
that a ‘who’ system for social cognition involves communication between perceptual and inferential mechanisms when
forming a representation of another’s identity
