The wide-spread connectivity of the claustrum with the cortex has suggested that it is involved in higher-cognitive functions. However, in mouse recent findings suggest a topographical organization with the cortex and a sensory regionalization of the claustrum. Our earlier work reports important differences in the organizational principals of mouse and primate cortical connectivity. Hence, we have undertaken extensive examination of the projections between claustrum and cortex in macaque using retrograde tracing. Surprisingly, we find that these connections do not obey the exponential distance
