The Dolphin cortical column is composed of only 5 layers. Although the dolphin brain is larger than the human brain, the dolphin has a need to sleep and still surface to breathe. It accomplishes this by having one-half of its brain sleep at a time. The Reptilian cortex has only three layers. and Wiesel followed up on their own studies with work demonstrating the impact of environmental changes on cortical organization, and the sum total of these works resulted in their Nobel Prize.
