Abstract: Highlights•Recent developments in high spatial resolution fMRI allow for functional imaging of human cortical layers (laminar fMRI).•Feedforward and feedback responses can be dissociated by their laminar profiles.•Measuring feedforward and feedback responses in humans with laminar fMRI has many applications for cognitive neuroscience.•We review recent laminar fMRI studies, and several areas of cognitive neuroscience that stand to benefit from laminar fMRI.
