Your thalamus is an egg-shaped structure in the middle of your brain. It’s known as a relay station of all incoming motor (movement) and sensory information — hearing, taste, sight and touch (but not smell) — from your body to your brain.
The thalamus is a paired structure in the brain, acting as a relay center. It processes and transmits sensory and motor signals to the cerebral cortex and regulates consciousness, sleep, and alertness.
The thalamus is a paired gray matter structure of the diencephalon located near the center of the brain. It is above the midbrain or mesencephalon, allowing for nerve fiber connections to the cerebral cortex in all directions — each thalamus connects to the other via the interthalamic adhesion.
The thalamus is a small yet complex brain structure that plays an important role in sensation, movement, motivated behaviors, and consciousness. It has a role in relaying motor and sensory information from various locations to the cerebral cortex.
The thalamus is a paired structure of gray matter about four centimetres long, located in the forebrain which is superior to the midbrain, near the center of the brain with nerve fibers projecting out to the cerebral cortex in all directions.
The thalamus is either of a pair of large ovoid organs that form most of the lateral walls of the third ventricle of the brain. The thalamus translates neural impulses to the cerebral cortex and can be divided into functionally distinct groups of neurons known as thalamic nuclei.
Structure and Function. The thalamus is a paired structure located in the center of the brain. Each side can divide into three groups of thalamic nuclei: a lateral nuclear group, a medial nuclear group, and an anterior nuclear group.
