| Research Abstract |
The cerebral cortices were highly developed tissue in primates and important for higher cognitive functions such as associative memory. Although characteristic six-layered structures of the cortices were well known by classical anatomical studies, functional significance of the laminar structure, especially in the processing of higher cognitive functions, remains to be elucidated. In this study, I took a new combinational approach with MRI, electrophysiology and histology, and found functional laminar differences of the primate cerebral cortices in the associative memory processing.
