This project examines the organization of long-range connections in the neocortex, focusing on the specificity of connections made by different neuron types. Using advanced mapping techniques, the research aims to uncover principles of cortical connectivity.
Given the complexity of the neocortex, the need for establishing simplifying principles of connectivity is paramount.
Local cortical circuits form stereotyped connections across the neocortex.
Within a cortical column, connections show laminar specificity and target preferentially particular cell-types while avoiding others.
In addition, subnetworks of highly interconnected neurons are embedded in the local circuit.
These subnetworks receive common local input and have similar functional propert…
