Radial glial cells, whose fibers serve as a scaffolding for migrating cells and a means of radial communication mediated by calcium dynamic activity, [21] [22] act as the main excitatory neuronal stem cell of the cerebral cortex [23] [24] or translocate to the cortical plate and differentiate either into astrocytes or neurons. [25]
The temporal lobes are a region of the cerebral cortex that is located beneath the Sylvian fissure on both the left and right hemispheres of the brain. [14] Lobes in this cortex are more closely associated with memory and in particular autobiographical memory. [15] The temporal lobes are also concerned with recognition memory.
Cerebral Cortex is a scientific journal in the neuroscience area, focusing on the development, organization, plasticity, and function of the cerebral cortex, including the hippocampus. It is published by Oxford University Press , and had as its founding editor Patricia Goldman-Rakic .
The cerebral cortex, also known as the cerebral mantle, [1] is the outer layer of neural tissue of the cerebrum of the brain in humans and other mammals. It is the largest site of neural integration in the central nervous system , [ 2 ] and plays a key role in attention , perception , awareness , thought , memory , language , and consciousness .
Cortex is a monthly peer-reviewed scientific journal published by Elsevier. It covers studies on the psychology, neuroscience, cognitive science, neuropsychology, and neurology of the cerebral cortex. The journal was established in 1964 by Ennio De Renzi. [1]
The cerebral cortex is divided into layers. Each layer is formed by radial glial cells located in the ventricular zone or subventricular zone, and then migrate to their final destination. [8] Layers of the cerebral cortex, oriented from most superficial (top of image) to deepest (bottom of image).
Hitzig and Fritsch ran an electric current through the cerebral cortex of a dog, causing different muscles to contract depending on which areas of the brain were electrically stimulated. This led to the proposition that individual functions are localized to specific areas of the brain rather than the cerebrum as a whole, as the aggregate field ...
