🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 00:00 *🧠 The cortex: an overview* - The cortex is a vital part of the brain responsible for complex processes and sensory functions. - It contains topographic representations of peripheral nerves and is involved in sensory perception, movement, and higher mental functions like language and memory. 01:22 *🧩 Structural divisions of the cortex* - The cortex is divided into gyri (convolutions) and sulci (grooves/fissures), increasing surface area. - Functional divisions include the frontal, parietal, occipital, and temporal lobes, each specializing in different functions such as motor control, sensory perception, and memory. 03:28 *🌐 Connectivity within the cortex* - Lobes are interconnected for coordinated functions like movement and sensation. - Major sulci, like the central, lateral, and parieto-occipital fissures, facilitate efficient communication between cortical areas. 05:18 *🧭 Deep structures within the cortex* - Deep cortical structures like the cingulate cortex, insular cortex, and hippocampus, part of the limbic system, play roles in emotion processing and memory formation. - These structures are crucial for conscious emotional experiences and long-term memory consolidation. 07:38 *📚 Functional specialization within the cortex* - Specific areas within the cortex, such as Broca's area for language production and the insular cortex for emotional processing, demonstrate functional specialization. - The prefrontal cortex, subdivided into orbitofrontal, dorsolateral, and ventromedial areas, governs higher cognitive functions like decision-making and empathy. 10:09 *🔌 Cortical information processing* - Sensory information from various modalities is relayed to the cortex via the thalamus, facilitating perception and interpretation. - Cortical output to structures like the basal ganglia and other cortical regions enables motor control and integration of sensory information. 12:39 *🧠 Processing sensory information in the cerebral cortex* - Sensory information arrives at the primary somatosensory cortex for initial processing. - Secondary somatosensory cortex integrates information with other brain regions for interpretation. - Motor cortices receive input for planning and executing movements based on sensory input. 15:12 *🖼️ Topographic representation in the somatosensory and motor cortices* - Topographic representation means areas of the body correspond to specific regions in the cortex. - Sensitivity and motor control vary based on the size of representation; hands have extensive representation. - Genitals have less representation compared to hands, emphasizing the importance of precision in hand movements. 18:01 *🧬 Layers and functions of the cerebral cortex* - The cerebral cortex consists of six layers with distinct functions. - Layers 1-3 facilitate cortical communication, while layers 5-6 manage subcortical connections. - Layer 4 receives thalamic input, determining whether information ascends or descends in the cortical hierarchy. 21:11 *⚙️ Differentiation of cortical areas based on function* - Sensory cortices have a prominent layer 4 to process thalamic input and communicate with other cortical areas. - Motor cortices prioritize layers 5 and 6 to send motor signals and coordinate movement. - Association cortices have balanced layer distribution to manage diverse functions and integrate sensory and motor information.

Dr. Soy sólo un odontólogo, así que ignoro mucho... Me siento culpable por aprender de sus videos sin tener que esforzarme en estudiar, pero es que por medios de videos es más rapido jaja, y es que ud enseña bien.

excelente video , muy completo, lenguaje fácil de comprender
🤗
Dr. Excelente explicación
Desde Panamá
Gracias❤
Wow, muchas felicidades. Llevo varios años en la universidad y no había comprendido tanto como hoy viendo este video.
Buenas noches Gracias por su orientación desde Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 la isla del Encanto Bendiciones y que Dios ilumine sus pasos 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Soy adicta a estos videos. Que bien explica todo y cuanto ayuda a los que queremos aprender.
Buena tarde Dr, listo hoy si llegue temprano, y dejo like, muchas gracias por su tiempo Dr👍👍
Muchas gracias Doctor por su tiempo.
Excelente video 🎉🎉 muchas gracias desde Lima-Perú 🎉🎉🎉
Excelente presentación, gracias Dr. Barrancabermeja - Colombia.
Lo amé ❤ que bien se expresa❤
Muchas gracias, algo tan complicado lo hace sencillo y clarificador
Excelente exposición
Saludos desde Colombia
Saludos Dr. Marco.
Muchas gracias

00:00 *🧠 The cortex: an overview*
- The cortex is a vital part of the brain responsible for complex processes and sensory functions.

01:22 *🧩 Structural divisions of the cortex*
- The cortex is divided into gyri (convolutions) and sulci (grooves/fissures), increasing surface area.
- Functional divisions include the frontal, parietal, occipital, and temporal lobes, each specializing in different functions such as motor control, sensory perception, and memory.
03:28 *🌐 Connectivity within the cortex*
- Lobes are interconnected for coordinated functions like movement and sensation.
- Major sulci, like the central, lateral, and parieto-occipital fissures, facilitate efficient communication between cortical areas.
05:18 *🧭 Deep structures within the cortex*
- Deep cortical structures like the cingulate cortex, insular cortex, and hippocampus, part of the limbic system, play roles in emotion processing and memory formation.
- These structures are crucial for conscious emotional experiences and long-term memory consolidation.
07:38 *📚 Functional specialization within the cortex*
- Specific areas within the cortex, such as Broca's area for language production and the insular cortex for emotional processing, demonstrate functional specialization.
- The prefrontal cortex, subdivided into orbitofrontal, dorsolateral, and ventromedial areas, governs higher cognitive functions like decision-making and empathy.
10:09 *🔌 Cortical information processing*
- Sensory information from various modalities is relayed to the cortex via the thalamus, facilitating perception and interpretation.
- Cortical output to structures like the basal ganglia and other cortical regions enables motor control and integration of sensory information.
12:39 *🧠 Processing sensory information in the cerebral cortex*
- Sensory information arrives at the primary somatosensory cortex for initial processing.
- Secondary somatosensory cortex integrates information with other brain regions for interpretation.
- Motor cortices receive input for planning and executing movements based on sensory input.
15:12 *🖼️ Topographic representation in the somatosensory and motor cortices*
- Topographic representation means areas of the body correspond to specific regions in the cortex.
- Sensitivity and motor control vary based on the size of representation; hands have extensive representation.
- Genitals have less representation compared to hands, emphasizing the importance of precision in hand movements.
18:01 *🧬 Layers and functions of the cerebral cortex*
- The cerebral cortex consists of six layers with distinct functions.
- Layers 1-3 facilitate cortical communication, while layers 5-6 manage subcortical connections.
- Layer 4 receives thalamic input, determining whether information ascends or descends in the cortical hierarchy.
21:11 *⚙️ Differentiation of cortical areas based on function*
- Sensory cortices have a prominent layer 4 to process thalamic input and communicate with other cortical areas.
- Motor cortices prioritize layers 5 and 6 to send motor signals and coordinate movement.
- Association cortices have balanced layer distribution to manage diverse functions and integrate sensory and motor information.

Bravo!!!!
Me estoy especializando en neurociencias
porque estructuras que están tan en lo profundo, como el hipocampo pertenecen a la corteza? no serían subcorticaleS?
