    Most famous parts of the brain highlighted in different colours. The human brain anatomical regions are ordered following standard neuroanatomy hierarchies. Functional, connective, and developmental regions are listed in parentheses where appropriate.

  3. Hippocampus proper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hippocampus_proper

    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.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hippocampus_anatomy

    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 ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_brain

    Information about the structure and function of the human brain comes from a variety of experimental methods, including animals and humans. Information about brain trauma and stroke has provided information about the function of parts of the brain and the effects of brain damage. Neuroimaging is used to visualise the brain and record brain ...

  6. Perirhinal cortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perirhinal_cortex

    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.

  7. Cerebrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebrum

    The cerebrum (pl.: cerebra), telencephalon or endbrain [1] is the largest part of the brain, containing the cerebral cortex (of the two cerebral hemispheres) as well as several subcortical structures, including the hippocampus, basal ganglia, and olfactory bulb. In the human brain, the cerebrum is the uppermost region of the central nervous system.

  8. Neuroanatomy of memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuroanatomy_of_memory

    The temporal lobes are a region of the cerebral cortex that is located beneath the Sylvian fissure on both the left and right hemispheres of the brain. [14] Lobes in this cortex are more closely associated with memory and in particular autobiographical memory. [15] The temporal lobes are also concerned with recognition memory.

  9. Entorhinal cortex - Wikipedia

    View of left entorhinal cortex (red) from beneath the brain, with front of brain at top. Artist's rendering. The superficial layers – layers II and III – of EC project to the dentate gyrus and hippocampus: Layer II projects primarily to dentate gyrus and hippocampal region CA3; layer III projects primarily to hippocampal region CA1 and the subiculum.
