Corticofugal Modulation of Sensory Information - Nunez, A. a Malmierca, E.

Sensory signals reach the cerebral cortex after having made synapses in different relay stations along the sensory pathway. Several lines of research indicate that the massive corticifugal system improves ongoing subcortical sensory processing and reorganizes the receptive fields in visual, auditory and somatosensory systems.
