Figure 7.

Cortical projections from neurons in the VAL complex of the thalamus. (A) Six VAL neurons and their axonal projections. (B) Coronal view of the same neurons. Dashed lines show position of cortical layers. (C) Left, sagittal view of two groups of VAL neurons with similar projection patterns in the posterior (red; n = 3 cells) or anterior (green; n = 3 cells) motor cortex. Right, higher magnification view of dashed box on the left. (D) Horizontal view of cortical projections of three neurons in caudomedial VAL, color coded according to their medial lateral position. White outline show locations of motor (MO) and sensory cortex (SS). (E) Relationship between somatic medial-lateral position and the average distance of the axonal centroid in the motor (MO) and sensory cortex (SS) to the border of those two areas (illustrated by inset). Positions are in CCF coordinates. Greyscale images are from the Allen anatomical template. See also Movie S5.
