Research Abstract |
I tried to investigate the differential distribution patterns of cortico-cortical, thalamocortical excitatory inputs on inhibitory interneurons and excitatory pyramidal neurons using immunohistochemical staining methods. The data of my experiments shows each type of neuron has distinctive distribution pattern excitatory inputs. The results of my research suggest that each neocortical neuron is controlled by specific pattern of excitatory signals.
