Researchers from the University of New Hampshire looked at the developmental process of the cerebral cortex—the outermost ...
These clusters were most distinct in the middle layers of the visual cortex ... Although the columnar organization of the cerebral cortex was described more than half a century ago, the function ...
A new study has identified brain regions crucial for remembering words and how they are affected in people with temporal lobe ...
However, the spatial proximity of cells processing input from the same eye continued in the overlying and underlying layers, thereby forming so-called ocular dominance columns. Although the columnar ...
The parts of the brain needed to remember words have been identified. Those areas are affected by a common form of epilepsy, ...
The folding brain creates a stress landscape, causing axons – the long, slender projections of neurons that transmit ...
Layer formation in the developing cerebral cortex requires the movement of neurons from their site of origin to their final laminar position. We demonstrate, using time-lapse imaging of acute ...
How a person's brain grows and makes connections can determine intelligence as well as susceptibility to disorders such as epilepsy and mental ...
