title: Transcriptional profiling of layers of the primate cerebral cortex.
abstract: In this issue of Neuron, Bernard et al. (2012) report microarray-based transcriptional profiling of individually isolated layers from several cortical areas in adult Rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta). The resulting molecular signatures of neocortical organization are compared with human and mouse.
