Ventral to each of the magnocellular and parvocellular layers lie the koniocellular layers, which differ in thickness. In macaques there are two magnocellular and four parvocellular layers, and accordingly six konicellular layers. K1, the layer ventral to M1, is the largest. K2, K3 and K4 are thinner but nonetheless substantial bands of neurons.

The parietal lobe is located directly behind the central sulcus, superior to the occipital lobe and posterior to the frontal lobe, visually at the top of the back of the head. [18] The make up of the parietal lobe is defined by four anatomical boundaries in the brain, providing a division of all the four lobes. [18]
In a number of cases, brain areas are organized into topographic maps, where adjoining bits of the cortex correspond to adjoining parts of the body, or of some more abstract entity. A simple example of this type of correspondence is the primary motor cortex, a strip of tissue running along the anterior edge of the central sulcus .
Now, after the lab team’s decade of close collaboration with scientists at Google, that data has turned into the most detailed map of a human brain sample ever created. 300 million images. The ...
Brain mapping – set of neuroscience techniques predicated on the mapping of (biological) quantities or properties onto spatial representations of the (human or non-human) brain resulting in maps. Brain mapping is further defined as the study of the anatomy and function of the brain and spinal cord through the use of imaging (including intra ...
Unlike the topographic maps of the senses, the neurons of the motor cortex are efferent neurons that exit the brain instead of bringing information to the brain through afferent connections. The motor system is responsible for initiating voluntary or planned movements ( reflexes are mediated at the spinal cord level, so movements associated ...
The map was produced by taking the brain of a fly, itself less than 1 millimetre wide, and cutting it into 7,000 slices and then scanning them. Researchers used AI to scan those images – more ...
