Cortical Neurons ()

Cortical Neurons Overview

Cortical neurons are the primary nerve cells located in the cerebral cortex, playing essential roles in memory, attention, perception, awareness, consciousness, and higher cognitive functions. The neocortex contains billions of these neurons organized into a six-layered structure. They include excitatory pyramidal neurons and inhibitory interneurons, which together form complex circuits underlying brain function. Their involvement in various neurological and psychiatric disorders makes them a major focus of neuroscience research.
