Large and fast human pyramidal neurons associate with intelligence

2018-04-06

Abstract excerpt

It is generally assumed that human intelligence relies on efficient processing by neurons in our brain. Behavioral and brain-imaging studies robustly show that higher intelligence associates with faster reaction times and thicker gray matter in temporal and frontal cortical areas. However, no direct evidence exists that links individual neuron activity and structure to human intelligence. Since a large part of cor...
