Granular layer (cerebral cortex)
Encyclopedia
The external granular layer is one of the layers of the cerebellar cortex consisting of granule cell
s, which are also known as granular neurons. The EGL is a cell population present during development, which migrates past the purkinje layer to form the internal granular layer (IGL). EGL cells migrate to the CB from the upper rhombic lip, before their final mitotic division.

In neuroscience, granule cells refer to tiny neurons that are around 10 micrometres in diameter. Granule cells are found within the granular layer of the cerebellum , the dentate gyrus of the...
