Whisker Array Functional Representation in Rat Barrel Cortex:Transcendence of One-to-One Topography and its Underlying Mechanism
The one-to-one relationship between whiskers, barrels, and barrel columns described for rat barrel cortex demonstrates that the organization of cortical function adheres to topographical and columnar principles. Supporting evidence is typically based on a single or few whiskers being stimulated, al...
