Provides a commentary on Herculano-Houzel et al. (2008) and Rockel at al. (1980), citing the former as a convincing (albeit not surprising) refutation of the latter in which the cortical architecture was assumed to be basically uniform within a brain and across mammalian species.

Quote: "Areas with more advanced functions – integrating information from the senses, reasoning and other ‘executive’ functions (e.g. prefrontal cortex) – matured last, in late adolescence. This sequence also provided evidence that phylogenetically older cortical areas mature earlier than the more recently evolved higher-order association cortices, which integrate information from earlier maturing cortex."

Demonstrates that neural precursor cells in ß-catenin-transgenic mice undergo more cell divisions before finally differentiating. This resulted in an increase of cortical surface area without an accompanying change in cortical thickness.
