The Development of Synapses in Cat Visual Cortex

B. G. CRAGG 1

1 Department of Physiology, Monash University, Clayton, Victoria 3168, Australia; Aided by N.H. and M.R.C.

A review of cortical development points to outstanding gaps in our knowledge. Counts of the distribution in depth of synapses are reported from two weeks before birth to adulthood. The rising density of synapses is compared with the developing physiological functions. The development of extrinsic connections is also considered.

Key Words: cat visual cortex • development • synapses
