Journal ArticleDOI
Cortex, Cognition and the Cell: New Insights into the Pyramidal Neuron and Prefrontal Function
TL;DR: It is proposed that without specializations in the structure of pyramidal cells, and the circuits they form, human cognitive processing would not have evolved to its present state.
Journal ArticleDOI
A redefinition of somatosensory areas in the lateral sulcus of macaque monkeys
TL;DR: The results provide evidence for two complete representations of the body surface in the region of cortex traditionally designated as SII in macaque monkeys, and it is proposed that SII and PV are components of a common plan of organization, and are present in many eutherian mammals.
Journal ArticleDOI
The pyramidal cell in cognition: a comparative study in human and monkey.
TL;DR: The results suggest that highly spinous, compartmentalized, pyramidal cells (and the circuits they form) are required to perform complex cortical functions such as comprehension, perception, and planning.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pyramidal Cells of the Frontal Lobe: All the More Spinous to Think With
TL;DR: The basal dendritic arbors of pyramidal cells in prefrontal areas 10, 11, and 12 of the macaque monkey were revealed by intracellular injection and revealed that cells in the frontal lobe were significantly more spinous than those in the other lobes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pyramidal cells, patches, and cortical columns: a comparative study of infragranular neurons in TEO, TE, and the superior temporal polysensory area of the macaque monkey.
TL;DR: The results parallel morphological variation seen in layer III pyramidal neurons, suggesting that increasing complexity of basal dendritic arbors of cells, with progression through higher areas of the temporal lobe, is a general organizational principle.
