The medial pallium is the progenitor of the mammalian hippocampus, and is thought to be involved in spatial cognitive mapping and memory formation across a broad range of species. The lateral and ventral pallium is the progenitor of the mammalian piriform cortex, and has an olfactory function in every species in which it has been studied. The ...
The pallium of avian species tends to be relatively large, comprising ~75% of the telencephalic volume. Birds have a unique pallial structure known as the hyperpallium, once called the hyperstriatum. Evidence suggests the avian pallium's neuroarchitecture to be reminiscent of the mammalian cerebral cortex. [1]
The globus pallidus (GP), also known as paleostriatum or dorsal pallidum, [1] is a major component of the subcortical basal ganglia in the brain.It consists of two adjacent segments, one external (or lateral), known in rodents simply as the globus pallidus, and one internal (or medial).
The ventral pallidum (VP) is a structure within the basal ganglia of the brain.It is an output nucleus whose fibres project to thalamic nuclei, such as the ventral anterior nucleus, the ventral lateral nucleus, and the medial dorsal nucleus.
In the human brain, the cerebrum is the uppermost region of the central nervous system. The cerebrum develops prenatally from the forebrain (prosencephalon). In mammals, the dorsal telencephalon, or pallium, develops into the cerebral cortex, and the ventral telencephalon, or subpallium, becomes the basal ganglia.
The nidopallium, meaning nested pallium, is the region of the avian brain that is used mostly for some types of executive functions but also for other higher cognitive tasks. The region was renamed nidopallium in 2002 during the Avian Brain Nomenclature Consortium because the prior name, neostriatum , suggested that the region was used for more ...
MESA, Ariz. — Chicago Cubs third baseman Matt Shaw was at his apartment Wednesday night when his phone buzzed. It was a text message from one of his best friends from Massachusetts, breathlessly ...
In anatomy of animals, the paleocortex, or paleopallium, is a region within the telencephalon in the vertebrate brain. [1] This type of cortical tissue consists of three cortical laminae (layers of neuronal cell bodies). [2] In comparison, the neocortex has six layers and the archicortex has three or four layers. [3]
