The perirhinal cortex is involved in both visual perception and memory; [1] it facilitates the recognition and identification of environmental stimuli. Lesions to the perirhinal cortex in both monkeys and rats lead to the impairment of visual recognition memory, disrupting stimulus-stimulus associations and object-recognition abilities.
The polymorphic layer is often called the hilus or hilar region. [14] The neurons in the polymorphic layer, including mossy cells and GABAergic interneurons, primarily receive inputs from the granule cells in the dentate gyrus in the form of mossy fibers and project to the inner molecular layer of the dentate gyrus via the associational ...
The human brain is the central organ of the nervous system, and with the spinal cord, comprises the central nervous system. It consists of the cerebrum, the brainstem and the cerebellum. The brain controls most of the activities of the body, processing, integrating, and coordinating the information it receives from the sensory nervous system ...
Hippocampus in the human brain Nissl-stained coronal section of the brain of a macaque monkey, showing hippocampal formation and subfields (circled). Hippocampus anatomy describes the physical aspects and properties of the hippocampus, a neural structure in the medial temporal lobe of each cerebral hemisphere of the brain.
The nose is referred to as the nasal region. The mouth is referred to as the oral region. The chin is referred to as the mental region. The neck is referred to as the cervical region. The trunk of the body contains, from superior to inferior, the thoracic region encompassing the chest [1] the mammary region encompassing each breast
Sagittal view of cingulate region of human brain with a Talairach grid superimposed in accordance with standard locators. Talairach coordinates, also known as Talairach space, is a 3-dimensional coordinate system (known as an 'atlas') of the human brain, which is used to map the location of brain structures independent from individual differences in the size and overall shape of the brain.
Many studies later culminating in work by Papez, and MacLean, the involvement of other interacting brain regions associated with emotion was recognised. [14] The hippocampus is anatomically connected to parts of the brain that are involved with emotional behavior, including the septal area , the hypothalamic mammillary bodies , and the anterior ...
