Vernon Benjamin Mountcastle (July 15, 1918 – January 11, 2015) was an American neurophysiologist and Professor Emeritus of Neuroscience at Johns Hopkins University. He discovered and characterized the columnar organization of the cerebral cortex in the 1950s. This discovery was a turning point in investigations of the cerebral cortex, as nearly all cortical studies of sensory function after Mountcastle's 1957 paper, on the somatosensory cortex, used columnar organization as their basis.

  • Vernon Benjamin Mountcastle (15 juillet 1918 - 11 janvier 2015) est un neurophysiologiste américain et professeur émérite de neurosciences à l'Université Johns-Hopkins. Il découvre et caractérise l'organisation en colonnes du cortex cérébral dans les années 1950. Cette découverte est un tournant dans les recherches sur le cortex cérébral, car presque toutes les études corticales de la fonction sensorielle après l'article de Mountcastle de 1957 sur le cortex somatosensoriel, utilisent l'organisation en colonnes comme base.

  • Vernon Benjamin Mountcastle (15 de julho de 1918 – 11 de janeiro de 2015) foi um professor emérito de neurociência na Universidade Johns Hopkins. Ele descobriu e caracterizou a organização colunar do córtex cerebral nos anos 1950. Esta descoberta foi crucial para a pesquisa sobre o córtex cerebral, já que, após o artigo de Mountcastle sobre o córtex somatossensorial, quase todos os estudos corticais sobre funções sensoriais tiveram a organização colunar como base.

El de la Mente y el Cerebro, es una de las instituciones que continúa con este tipo de investigación. (es)
  • Вернон Бенджамин Маунткасл (англ. Vernon Benjamin Mountcastle; 15 июля 1918, Шелбивилл, округ Шелби, Кентукки — 11 января 2015) — невролог из университета Джонса Хопкинса. Он открыл и характеризовал модульную организацию коры головного мозга в 1950-х годах. Это открытие стало поворотной точкой в исследовании коры, настолько, что почти все теории о сенсорных функциях, возникшие после публикации Маунткасла о соматосенсорной коре, используют модульную организацию как основу.
