  2. Thalamus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thalamus

    The principal subdivision of the thalamus into nucleus groups is the trisection of each thalamus (left and right) by a Y-shaped internal medullary lamina. This trisection divides each thalamus into anterior, medial and lateral groups of nuclei. [8] The medial group is subdivided into the medial dorsal nucleus and midline group.

  3. Limbic system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limbic_system

    Hypothalamus: a center for the limbic system, connected with the frontal lobes, septal nuclei, and the brain stem reticular formation via the medial forebrain bundle, with the hippocampus via the fornix, and with the thalamus via the mammillothalamic fasciculus; regulates many autonomic processes

  4. Hypothalamus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypothalamus

    Delta wave signalling arising either in the thalamus or in the cortex influences the secretion of releasing hormones; GHRH and prolactin are stimulated whilst TRH is inhibited. The hypothalamus is responsive to: Light: daylength and photoperiod for regulating circadian and seasonal rhythms; Olfactory stimuli, including pheromones

  5. Cortico-basal ganglia-thalamo-cortical loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cortico-basal_ganglia-th...

    The loop involves connections between the cortex, the basal ganglia, the thalamus, and back to the cortex. It is of particular relevance to hyperkinetic and hypokinetic movement disorders , such as Parkinson's disease and Huntington's disease , [ 1 ] as well as to mental disorders of control, such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder ...

  6. Motor control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_control

    This sensory input, while processed, does not necessarily cause conscious awareness of the action. Closed loop control [24]: 186 is a feedback based mechanism of motor control, where any act on the environment creates some sort of change that affects future performance through feedback. Closed loop motor control is best suited to continuously ...

  7. List of thalamic nuclei - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_thalamic_nuclei

    This traditional list does not accord strictly with human thalamic anatomy. Nuclear groups of the thalamus include: anterior nuclear group [1] (anteroventral, [2] anterodorsal, [3] anteromedial [4]) medial nuclear group (medial dorsal nucleus, [5] a.k.a. dorsomedial) parvocellular part [6] (a.k.a. parvicellular part) magnocellular part [7]

  9. Human brain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_brain

    Beneath the lateral ventricles is the thalamus and to the front and below is the hypothalamus. The hypothalamus leads on to the pituitary gland. At the back of the thalamus is the brainstem. [27] The basal ganglia, also called basal nuclei, are a set of structures deep within the hemispheres involved in behaviour and movement regulation. [28]
