A comparative perspective on minicolumns and inhibitory GABAergic interneurons in the neocortex
Neocortical columns are functional and morphological units whose architecture may have been under selective evolutionary pressure in different mammalian lineages in response to encephalization and specializations of cognitive abilities. Inhibitory interneurons make a substantial contribution to the...
