Preferred Label : entorhinal cortex layer 1;
Uberon definition : Layer of the entorhinal cortex that is most superficial, continuous with layer 1 of
adjacent neocortex and the molecular layer of the subiculum, lying deep to the pial
layer and superficial to layer 2. It is relatively acellular consisting mostly of
fibers running transversely relative to the cortical surface (Adapted from Paxinos,
