Abstract Unlike the mammalian neocortex, where neurons are highly organized in six-layers, the avian pallium contains spatially segregated clusters of neurons. Although the quest to find similarities between the avian pallium and the mammalian neocortex has long been pursued, the extent of similarity between the two in terms of pallial organization is not completely explored.

Abstract The avian pallium contains spatially segregated clusters of neurons, unlike mammalian neocortex, where neurons are highly organized as a six-layered structure. However, the quest to find similarities between avian pallium and mammalian neocortex has long been pursued. The extent of similarity among embryonic avian pallium and mammalian neocortex in terms of pallial organization is not completely explored.

RESEARCH REPORT MicroRNA-19b restricts Wnt7b to the hem, which induces aspects of hippocampus development in the avian forebrain Suvimal Kumar Sindhu, Niveda Udaykumar, Mohd Ali Abbas Zaidi, Abhinav Soni, Jonaki Sen Development 2019 146: dev175729 doi: 10.1242/dev.175729 Published 2 October 2019 ABSTRACT The functions of the hippocampus are conserved between birds and mammals; however, it is not known whether similar mechanisms are responsible for its development in these two classes.
