    Fimbria-fornix fibers are the hippocampal and subicular gateway to and from subcortical brain regions. [10] [11] Different parts of this system are given different names: White myelinated fibers that cover the ventricular (deep) parts of hippocampus make alveus. Fibers that cover the temporal parts of hippocampus make a fiber bundle that is ...

    The region is conventionally divided into three divisions. CA3a is the part of the cell band that is most distant from the dentate (and closest to CA1). CA3b is the middle part of the band nearest to the fimbria and fornix connection. CA3c is nearest to the dentate, inserting into the hilus.

    The anterior part of the right hippocampus was larger and the posterior part was smaller, compared with sighted individuals. [73] There are several navigational cells in the brain that are either in the hippocampus itself or are strongly connected to it, such as the speed cells present in the medial entorhinal cortex. Together these cells form ...

    Broca's area – region of the brain with functions linked to speech production Triangular part of inferior frontal gyrus – part of Broca's area that contributes to propositional (true/false) language comprehension; Caudate nucleus – located within the basal ganglia and involved in learning and memory

    The dentate gyrus (DG) is part of the hippocampal formation in the temporal lobe of the brain, which also includes the hippocampus and the subiculum.The dentate gyrus is part of the hippocampal trisynaptic circuit and is thought to contribute to the formation of new episodic memories, [1] [2] the spontaneous exploration of novel environments [2] and other functions.
