P.725 right column top paragraph: "However, this apparent cytoarchitectural uniformity exhibits different degrees of variability in each area depending on their function. This compartmentalization is particularly pronounced in the large and convoluted human neocortex, with more than 50 distinct cytoarchitectonic areas (primary source)." |
