Large-Scale Network Organisation in the Avian Forebrain: A Connectivity Matrix and Theoretical Analysis
Many species of birds, including pigeons, possess demonstrable cognitive capacities, and some are capable of cognitive feats matching those of apes. Since mammalian cortex is laminar while the avian telencephalon is nucleated, it is natural to ask whether the brains of these two cognitively capable...
