This area, also known as Broadman area 17 or V1, is the occipital lobe's primary visual cortex. Secondary visual cortex. The secondary visual cortex is also designated V2, V3, V4, V5, or Brodmann ...

Area-Specific Reestablishment of Damaged Circuits in the Adult Cerebral Cortex by Cortical Neurons Derived from Mouse Embryonic Stem Cells. Neuron , 2015; 85 (5): 982 DOI: 10.1016/j.neuron.2015.02.001 ...

However, a study done by the Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience shows the cortex gets help from another region, namely, the cerebellum, or small brain, an area involved in movement.

Studying 40 years' worth of data on rat brains, scientists found that the rat cerebral cortex has hubs and 'local area networks,' much like the Internet. Skip to main content.
