A spatially embedded cortical connectome reveals complex transformations

In this issue of Neuron, Xu et al. (2022) use electrical microstimulation of macaque prefrontal cortex combined with functional MRI to map weighted orderly topographic relationships with other association cortex domains, revealing a spatially embedded large-scale organization likely to be functionally important.
