Table 3.

Layer-specific external inputs

External inputs L2/3 L4 L5 L6
Thalamic 0 93 0 47
Gray matter 534 353 389 79
Other white matter 1072 1665 1609 2790
Total 1606 2111 1997 2915

Notes: From top to bottom, the estimated numbers of external inputs per neuron are shown for excitatory neurons in layers 2/3, 4, 5, and 6 for the 3 distinguished input types: Thalamic, gray matter, and other white matter inputs. The total number of external inputs is rounded for simulations (compare Table 4).
