Laminar distribution of the pathological changes in frontal and temporal cortex in 8 patients with progressive supranuclear palsy.

30 Aug 2009 OBJECTIVE: To determine the laminar distribution of the pathological changes in the cerebral cortex in progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). METHOD: The distribution of the abnormally enlarged neurons (EN), surviving neurons, neurofibrillary tangles ... Read more...

Cortical inhibitory cell types differentially form intralaminar and interlaminar subnetworks with excitatory neurons.

24 Aug 2009 The neocortical circuit is composed of excitatory principal neurons and inhibitory interneurons. Recent advances have established that multiple subnetworks of synaptically coupled excitatory neurons provide distinct pathways for information flow ... Read more...

Which object appeared longer?

28 Jul 2009 In this issue of Neuron, Genovesio et al. report that neurons in the frontal cortex encode the relative duration of appearance of two sensory signals, together with the features of each signal. Such representations could provide a neural basis for ... Read more...
