Robust Machine Learning-Based Correction on Automatic Segmentation of the Cerebellum and Brainstem. [PDF]
, 2016 Automated segmentation is a useful method for studying large brain structures such as the cerebellum and brainstem. However, automated segmentation may lead to inaccuracy and/or undesirable boundary.

Brainstem Organoids From Human Pluripotent Stem Cells
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2020 The brainstem is a posterior region of the brain, composed of three parts, midbrain, pons, and medulla oblongata. It is critical in controlling heartbeat, blood pressure, and respiration, all of which are life-sustaining functions, and therefore, damages

Cortical lesions causing loss of consciousness are anticorrelated with the dorsal brainstem
Human Brain Mapping, 2020 Brain lesions can provide unique insight into the neuroanatomical substrate of human consciousness. For example, brainstem lesions causing coma map to a specific region of the tegmentum.

Swimming Rhythm Generation in The Caudal Hindbrain of The Lamprey [PDF]
, 2018 The spinal cord has been well established as the site of generation of the locomotor rhythm in vertebrates, but studies have suggested that the caudal hindbrain in larval fish and amphibians can also generate locomotor rhythms.
