The Pulvinar Thalamic Nucleus of Non-Human Primates: Architectonic and Functional Subdivisions

This book discusses the hypothesis that the primate pulvinar contains an original scaffold which is derived from cytoarchitectural markers and specific protein distributions. Thereafter, along primate evolution, different selective pressures acted in order to shape and fine-tune the connectivity of...
