The brain is a complex organ that controls thought, memory, emotion, touch, motor skills, vision, breathing, temperature, hunger and every process that regulates our body. Together, the brain and spinal cord that extends from it make up the central nervous system, or CNS.
This interactive brain model is powered by the Wellcome Trust and developed by Matt Wimsatt and Jack Simpson; reviewed by John Morrison, Patrick Hof, and Edward Lein. Structure descriptions were written by Levi Gadye and Alexis Wnuk and Jane Roskams .
The human brain is a complex organ, made up of several distinct parts, each responsible for different functions. The cerebrum, the largest part, is responsible for sensory interpretation, thought processing, and voluntary muscle activity.
Learn about the parts of the brain and their functions. Get a diagram of human brain anatomy and key facts about this important organ.
The brain gives us self-awareness and the ability to speak and move in the world. Its four major regions make this possible: The cerebrum, with its cerebral cortex, gives us conscious control of our actions. The diencephalon mediates sensations, manages emotions, and commands whole internal systems.
The horizontal menu gives access to several groups of anatomical structures: encephalic sulci and gyri, limbic system, white matter, ventricle and cisterns architecture, basal nuclei and related structures, optic tract, cerebellum with its lobes according to numbered nomenclature, spinal cord.
The Human Brain. Explore the brain's complex functions and composition with Innerbody's 3D anatomical model. The brain is one of the most complex and magnificent organs in the human body. Our brain gives us awareness of ourselves and of our environment, processing a constant stream of sensory data.
In this comprehensive 3D animation we go over the anatomy of the brain in detail, from the lobes, gyri and sulci of the cortex, to the nuclei of the basal ganglia, white matter, parts of the brainstem, locations of the ventricles, commissures, and other structures.
A topographical anatomy of the brain showing the different levels (encephalon, diencephalon, mesencephalon, metencephalon, pons and cerebellum, rhombencephalon and prosencephalon) as well as a diagram of the various cerebral lobes (frontal lobe, occipital, parietal, temporal, limbic and insular).
Brain diagram. Use this interactive 3-D diagram to explore the brain. Anatomy and function. Cerebrum. The cerebrum is the largest part of the brain. It’s divided into two halves, called...
