The neocortex is the region of the brain that underlies all cognitive functions. Mental disorders, such as schizophrenia, occur when the communication between nerve cells in the neocortex breaks down. We propose to make electrical measurements from the thin processes of neurons that receive input from widely separated neocortical areas to understand how areas of the neocortex are functionally interlinked, with the ultimate aim to identify how these processes are disturbed in mental disorders.

新皮层是大脑中所有认知功能的基础区域。精神障碍，如精神分裂症，是由于大脑新皮层中神经细胞之间的交流中断而发生的。我们建议对神经元的薄过程进行电测量，这些神经元接收来自广泛分离的新皮层区域的输入，以了解新皮层区域如何在功能上相互联系，最终目的是确定这些过程如何在精神障碍中受到干扰。
