Abstract

Korbinian Brodmann was a German scientist who lived between 1868-1918 and had many studies in fields related to psychiatry, physiology, zoology and anthropology.With Brodmann's observations in the gray matter of the brain, cortical areas divided into numbers by consideration of number of cell layers, cellular morphology, distribution of dendritic connections, and presentation of neuronal types. He left his mark on neuroscience with Brodman's atlas, which is used to mapping the cerebral cortex by enumerate and still in use today. The aim of this study is to present Korbinian Brodmann's Contributions to Neuroscience and Cerebral Cortex Localization studies with a literature review.

KORBİNİAN BRODMANN’NIN NÖROBİLİME KATKILARI VE SEREBRAL KORTEKS LOKALİZASYON ÇALIŞMALARI

Abstract

Korbinian Brodmann 1868–1918 yılları arasında yaşamış nöroloji, psikiyatri, fizyoloji, zooloji ve antropoloji ile ilgili çok sayıda alanda çalışması bulunan Alman bilim insanıdır. Brodmann'ın beynin gri maddesinde yaptığı gözlemlerle hücre katmanlarının sayısı, hücresel morfoloji, dendritik bağlantıların dağılımı ve nöronal tiplerin sunumunu göz önünde bulundurarak kortikal alanları sayılara bölünmüştür. Serebral korteksin numaralandırılarak haritalanmasını sağladığı ve günümüzde hala kullanılmakta olan Brodman atlası ile nörobilime damga vurmuştur. Bu çalışmanın amacı Korbinian Brodmann’nın Nörobilime Katkıları ve Serebral Korteks Lokalizasyon çalışmalarını literatür taraması ile ortaya koymaktır.
