Cerebral Cortex

Preferred Label : Cerebral Cortex;

NCIt synonyms : Cortex; Cortical;

NCIt related terms : cortex of cerebral hemisphere;

NCIt definition : The outer layer of the cerebrum composed of neurons and unmyelinated nerve fibers. It is responsible for memory, attention, consciousness and other higher levels of mental function.;

Alternative definition : UBERON: The thin layer of gray matter on the surface of the cerebral hemisphere that develops from the telencephalon. It consists of the neocortex (6 layered cortex or isocortex), the hippocampal formation and the olfactory cortex.;
