Most higher-order processing by the human and mammalian brain is thought to occur in the neocortex, a structure on the surface of the brain. Now researchers have found cells similar to those of the ...

The neocortex is part of the human brain’s cerebral cortex where higher cognitive functioning is thought to originate from. Due to the natural grooves and ridges in the brain, the neocortex is ...

The neocortex is a layered structure of the brain in which neurons are arranged parallel to each other. This organization is critical for healthy brain function. A team of researchers from Charité - ...

Please provide your email address to receive an email when new articles are posted on . A distal neocortex that forms after total hip arthroplasty is a common finding in patients with a tapered wedge ...

Precursors in the dorsal pallium were thought to give rise exclusively to neocortex during development. A new study finds that a stream of migrating cells from this area also gives rise to a nucleus ...

The neocortex is a part of the brain of mammals. It is the top layer of the cerebral hemispheres, 2-4 mm thick, and made up of six layers, labelled I to VI (with VI being the innermost and I being the ...
