Progressive acquisition of cortical phenotypes as a mechanism for specifying the developing cerebral cortex.

Abstract excerpt

The formation of the cerebral cortex requires the assembly of a complex array of neurons that exhibit specific patterns of laminar distribution, connectivity, and macromolecular expression. The problem of how various areas become specified relies to a large extent on the ability to assay certain characteristics of a particular cortical area during development. Certain phenotypic features appear to be acquired...
