néocortex
Sign in to saveAlso known as cerebral neocortex, isocortex
The neocortex, also called the neopallium, isocortex or six-layered cortex, is a set of layers of the mammalian cerebral cortex involved in higher-order brain functions such as sensory perception, cognition, generation of motor commands, spatial reasoning, and language. The neocortex is further subdivided into the true isocortex and the proisocortex.

Le néocortex (ou néopallium, ou encore isocortex) est une zone du cerveau des mammifères qui correspond à la couche externe des hémisphères cérébraux. Il fait partie du cortex cérébral (comprenant également l'archicortex et le paléocortex, membres du système limbique). Il est lui-même constitué de six couches distinctes, numérotées de I à VI (VI étant la plus profonde et I la plus externe). Il est impliqué dans les fonctions cognitives dites supérieures comme les perceptions sensorielles, les commandes motrices volontaires, le raisonnement spatial, la conscience ou encore le langage.
