Neocortical axon arbors trade-off material and conduction delay conservation.

Neocortical axon arbors trade-off material and conduction delay conservation.

The brain contains a complex network of axons rapidly communicating information between billions of synaptically connected neurons. The morphology of individual axons, therefore, defines the course of information flow within the brain. More than a century ago, Ramón y Cajal proposed that conservatio...
