The large numbers of minicolumns in the primary visual cortex of humans, chimpanzees and gorillas are related to high visual acuity
Minicolumns are thought to be a fundamental neural unit in the neocortex and their replication may have formed the basis of the rapid cortical expansion that occurred during primate evolution. We sought evidence of minicolumns in the primary visual cortex (V-1) of three great apes, three rodents and...
