[HTML][HTML] A phylogenetically-conserved axis of thalamocortical connectivity in the human brain
The thalamus enables key sensory, motor, emotive, and cognitive processes via
connections to the cortex. These projection patterns are traditionally considered to originate …

Analogous cortical reorganization accompanies entry into states of reduced consciousness during anesthesia and sleep
Theories of consciousness suggest that brain mechanisms underlying transitions into and
out of unconsciousness are conserved no matter the context or precipitating conditions. We …

Development of thalamocortical connectivity during the third trimester
Thalamocortical connections are crucial for relaying sensory information in the brain and
facilitate essential functions including motor skills, emotion, and cognition. Emerging …
