Es gibt (noch) kein VIP-Areal im Gehirn, aber es gibt VIP-Neurone. Hunde sehen Wärmestrahlung. Fliegen sehen Kino. Mikroskopie am Rande der Legalität. Gespräche zwischen Cortex und Accumbens. Und mehr beim Treffen der Hirnforscher in Göttingen.
Cortex
cortex cerebri
Cortex refers to a collection of neurons, typically in the form of a thin surface. However, it usually refers to the cerebral cortex, the outermost layer of the cerebrum. It is 2.5 mm to 5 mm thick and rich in nerve cells. The cerebral cortex is heavily folded, comparable to a handkerchief in a cup. This creates numerous convolutions (gyri), fissures (fissurae), and sulci. Unfolded, the surface area of the cortex is approximately 1,800cm².
