Cortical layering is a hallmark of the mammalian neocortex and a major determinant of local synaptic circuit organization in sensory systems. In motor cortex, the laminar organization of cortical ...

The sensory cortex is a strip of brain tissue positioned roughly under where the band between a pair of headphones sits. Across it, neurons linked to different body parts exchange information ...

WASHINGTON - Neuroscientists have produced the largest wiring diagram and functional map of a mammalian brain to date using tissue from a part of a mouse’s cerebral cortex involved in vision, an ...

The sensorimotor connections between the cerebral cortex and cerebellum mature during the first few years of life, when the brains of children with autism grow larger in volume than typically ...

The parietal lobe processes sensory information it receives from the outside world, mainly relating to touch, ... The parietal lobe is one of the four major lobes of the cerebral cortex in humans.

As the animals perform sequential movements, the researchers say, it's likely that the premotor area sends electrical signals via special nerve cells to the two other sensorimotor cortex areas ...
