In 1957, Vernon Mountcastle showed that the functional properties of the cortex change abruptly between laterally adjacent points ; however, they are continuous in the direction perpendicular to the surface.

Vernon Mountcastle, in the early 1960s, set up to study this set of problems, which he termed " the Mind / Brain problem ", by studying the neural basis of perception in the somatic sensory system.

The columnar functional organization, as originally framed by Vernon Mountcastle, suggests that neurons that are horizontally more than 0. 5 mm ( 500 µm ) from each other do not have overlapping sensory receptive fields, and other experiments give similar results: 200 – 800 µm ( Buxhoeveden 2002, Hubel 1977, Leise 1990, etc .).

As in other sensory cortices, S1 neurons are grouped together with similar inputs and responses into vertical columns that extend across cortical layers ( e. g., As shown by Vernon Mountcastle, into alternating layers of slowly adapting and rapidly adapting neurons ; or spatial segmentation of the vibrissae on mouse / rat cerebral cortex ).

In particular, neocortex is assumed to consist of a large number of columns ( as surmised also by Vernon Benjamin Mountcastle from anatomical and theoretical considerations ).
