Cerebral cortex: Function and development
"Structure et Function dans le Systeme Visuel" was the title given to the first Institut National de la Sante et de la Recherche Medicale (INSERM) symposium held on this topic in Lyon in September 1986. Nine years later, its successor was held in the same place. What has changed? Well, the Salle Moliere has had a face-lift, and it would be difficult to think of a finer venue for a meeting of ab...
متن کاملStructure and function of the cerebral cortex
Do all meerkats help equally? No, research has shown that the amount of help provided typically depends on the ability to help: well-fed individuals are more likely to expend energy for the benefit of others. But this is not to say that meerkats simply help indiscriminately. Female helpers, for example, preferentially feed female pups — probably because these pups, being the philopatric sex, re...
متن کاملLocalization of function in the cerebral cortex.
At a famous meeting of the International Medical Congress held in London on August 4,1881 Goltz of Strassburg (as it was then spelt) confronted Ferrier of London on the subject of the localization of function in the cerebral cortex. In the first part of this paper the events of that meeting are recalled. Goltz was reluctant to accept the idea of localization because of the restitution of functi...
متن کاملDevelopment of the cerebral cortex: II. Lissencephaly.
Lissencephaly refers to diso rders of brain form ation in wh ich the surface of the cerebral cortex appears smooth. In affected individuals the layers of cells in the cerebral cortex are abnormal. Scientists believe that this is due to disruption of the early migration pattern of neurons. The two most common forms of lissencephaly are isolated lissencephaly and Mill er-Dicker syndrome (MDS). Pa...
متن کاملDevelopment and function of human cerebral cortex neural networks from pluripotent stem cells in vitro
A key aspect of nervous system development, including that of the cerebral cortex, is the formation of higher-order neural networks. Developing neural networks undergo several phases with distinct activity patterns in vivo, which are thought to prune and fine-tune network connectivity. We report here that human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC)-derived cerebral cortex neurons form large-scale networ...
