One of the most characteristic features of the brain’s information processing is its functional compartmentalization. Cytoarchitectonically and myloarchitectonically distinct areas (Brodmann, 1909) of the mammalian brain perform different functions, and, within such brain areas, neurons with similar receptive and response properties are clustered into isofunctional domains. Such cortical parcellation has been especially well studied in the visual systems of primates and felines. In these species, visual functions are localized at the scale of centimeters to millimeters in multiple cortical areas, each processing a separate aspect of the visual world (Felleman and Van Essen, 1991; Payne and Peters, 2002). Furthermore, within each visual area, there is a topographic representation of the receptive field properties in a" cortical map." For example, neurons with similar response properties, such as ocular dominance, orientation, and direction preferences, are clustered into “columns” at a submillimeter scale, spanning the entire cortical plate from the pia to the white matter. Since the pioneering studies by Hubel and Wiesel (1962), the layout, function, and plasticity of cortical columns and maps have been studied extensively in mammalian brains by a variety of techniques. Each of the traditional mapping
