Genetic influence on quantitative features of neocortical architecture.

The Journal of neuroscience : the official journal of the Society for Neuroscience - 15 Aug 2002

Kaschube Matthias, Wolf Fred, Geisel Theo, Löwel Siegrid

Abstract excerpt

The layout of functional cortical maps exhibits a high degree of interindividual variability that may account for individual differences in sensory and cognitive abilities. By quantitatively assessing the interindividual variability of orientation preference columns in the primary visual cortex, we demonstrate that column sizes and shapes as well as a measure of the homogeneity of column sizes across the visual...
