Subbarrel patterns in somatosensory cortical barrels can emerge from local dynamic instabilities.
Complex spatial patterning, common in the brain as well as in other biological systems, can emerge as a result of dynamic interactions that occur locally within developing structures. In the rodent somatosensory cortex, groups of neurons called "barrels" correspond to individual whiskers o...
