Abstract
The cortical circuitry of the visual cortex has been worked out in great detail. Anatomical investigations reveal stereotyped connections within cortical columns and specific long-range connections between distant columns. Pharmacological techniques for blocking the activity in individual cortical layers or columns allow the microdissection of the cortical circuit. These studies could relate specific functional roles to particular cortical connections.Mesh:
