CRISPR construct to genetically ablate the GABA transporter GAT3 in the mouse visual cortex, with effects on population-level neuronal activity. This work is important, as it sheds light on how GAT3 ...

In turn, Layers 4 to 6—called the internal granular layer, the internal pyramidal layer, and the multiform or polymorphic layer, respectively—each have their own distinctive arrangements of neurons, ...

Researchers from the University of New Hampshire looked at the developmental process of the cerebral cortex —the outermost layer of the brain — and examined how neurons, or nerve cells, refine their ...

The cerebral cortex, also known as gray matter, is your brain’s outermost layer and is located above the cerebrum. Learn more about its vital functions.

It is constituted of up to six horizontal layers, each of which has a different composition in terms of neurons and connectivity. The human cerebral cortex is 2–4 mm (0.08–0.16 inches) thick.

Beneath the human brain's bulging cerebral cortex, smaller structures toil in relative obscurity. Subcortical areas, also known as the 'deep brain,' play key roles in functions like attention, emotion ...

The cerebral cortex of your brain is the outermost layer. It's the part of the brain that appears wrinkled because it has a lot of folds. Your cerebral cortex is divided into two hemispheres.

But what is happening inside the brain when patients are put under and what does this reveal about consciousness itself?

The cerebral cortex is the outermost layer of the brain, and is responsible for complex functions such as thought, perception and decision-making. Cerebral cortex folding, known as gyrification, is ...

Researchers utilize 3D printing to craft cerebral cortex tissues with organized neurons, offering potential treatments for brain injuries. This novel technique prints neural progenitors in layer ...
