“…A wealth of evidence indicates that layer 2/3 neurons provide a major source of output to other neocortical areas (reviewed in Callaway, 1998; Douglas & Martin, 2004; Felleman & Van Essen, 1991; Harris & Shepherd, 2015; Thomson & Lamy, 2007)). In macaque V1, layer 2/3 neurons send projections to higher visual areas such as V2 (Livingstone & Hubel, 1984; Rockland, 1992; Sincich & Horton, 2005) and V4 (Yukie & Iwai, 1985), and receive inputs from all the deeper cortical layers, including layer 4C, 4C β , 4A, 4B, 5 and 6 (Blasdel, Lund, & Fitzpatrick, 1985; Callaway, 1998; Callaway & Wiser, 1996; Fitzpatrick, Lund, & Blasdel, 1985; Kisvarday, Cowey, Smith, & Somogyi, 1989; Lachica, Beck, & Casagrande, 1992; Jennifer S Lund & Boothe, 1975; Sawatari & Callaway, 2000; Vanni, Hokkanen, Werner, & Angelucci, 2020; Wiser & Callaway, 1996; Yarch, Federer, & Angelucci, 2017; Yoshioka, Levitt, & Lund, 1994) (Fig. 7a).…”
