Unique membrane properties and enhanced signal processing in human neocortical neurons

Unique membrane properties and enhanced signal processing in human neocortical neurons

The advanced cognitive capabilities of the human brain are often attributed to our recently evolved neocortex. However, it is not known whether the basic building blocks of the human neocortex, the pyramidal neurons, possess unique biophysical properties that might impact on cortical computations. H...
