Layer-specific Cortical Refinement

Layer-Specific Cortical Refinement is a developmental neurobiological process that refers to the selective stabilization and elimination of synapses within specific cortical layers during postnatal brain development, distinguishing it from general synaptic pruning by its laminar specificity and temporal coordination with functional circuit maturation.
