text: All thalamic nuclei, including the different subdivisions of the MD, receive afferents from cortical layer 6 (that are transmitted via the reticular thalamus), while only some nuclei, namely the higher order thalamic nuclei, which includes some of the subdivisions of the MD, also receive cortical afferents from layer 5 (corticothalamic inputs), in the form of a collateral projection (efference copy) going to a motor output structure (Gilbert and Kelly, 1975; Abramson and Chalupa, 1985; Ono and Niimi, 1986; Giguere and Goldman-Rakic, 1988; Groenewegen, 1988; Schwartz et al., 1991; Kuroda et al.,
text: This projection, known as an “efference copy”, is thought to modulate behavior but also simultaneously sends information to the next cortical area.
