PO (Posterior complex of the thalamus) projects to SSp (Primary somatosensory area)

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: anterograde tracer
Sign: unknown
Strength: strong
Evidence: Thalamic AAV-GFP infection produced a dense columnar axonal plexus in layer IV of primary somatosensory cortex.

Named in the paper: “posterior and ventral posterior thalamus” and “primary somatosensory cortex”
Made by: an AI model reading the paper (claude-opus-5-5, extract@0.3.0), 2026-10-10
Checked by: a second AI model (claude-opus-5-5) is unsure, 2026-10-10
“The layer IV columnar plexus is attributed to the posterior and ventral posterior thalamus together, so it cannot be assigned to PO alone.”
Status: proposed
Drafted and checked by AI models; it stays proposed until people have audited a sample of such claims.
