Anatomy and Function of the Primate Entorhinal Cortex

Annual Review of Vision Science, 2020
The entorhinal cortex (EC) is a critical element of the hippocampal formation located within the medial temporal lobe (MTL) in primates. The EC has historically received attention for being the primary mediator of cortical information going into and coming from the hippocampus proper.

The Anatomy and Physiology of Claustrum-Cortex Interactions

Annual Review of Neuroscience, 2020
The claustrum is one of the most widely connected regions of the forebrain, yet its function has remained obscure, largely due to the experimentally challenging nature of targeting this small, thin, and elongated brain area. However, recent advances in molecular techniques have enabled the anatomy and physiology of the claustrum to be studied with the

Cortex: Gross Anatomy

2021
Abstract The cerebral cortex consists of 2 hemispheres, the left and the right. These are divided by the falx cerebri, a dural-derived structure. The cerebral cortex receives input from various subcortical structures, often connecting through the thalamus and from other areas of the cortex by association fibers.

On the role of anatomy in learning by the cerebellar cortex

Mathematical Biosciences, 1999
The properties due to the location of neurons, synapses, and possibly even synaptic channels, in neuron networks are still unknown. Our preliminary results suggest that not only the interconnections but also the relative positions of the different elements in the network are of importance in the learning process in the cerebellar cortex.

Cingulate Cortex: Anatomy, Structural and Functional Connectivity

Journal of Clinical Neurophysiology, 2023
Summary: The cingulate cortex is a paired brain region located on the medial wall of each hemisphere. This review explores the anatomy as well as the structural and functional connectivity of the cingulate cortex underlying essential roles this region plays in emotion, autonomic, cognitive, motor control, visual–spatial processing, and memory.

The anatomy, physiology and functions of the perirhinal cortex

Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 1996
The perirhinal cortex is a polymodal association area that contributes importantly to normal recognition memory. A convergence of recent findings from lesion and electrophysiological studies has provided new evidence that this area participates in an even broader range of memory functions than previously thought, including associative memory and ...

Gustatory cortex of primates: anatomy and physiology

Neuroscience Research, 1994
Clinical and physiological studies of patients with ageusia or gustatory hallucination suggest that the primary gustatory area (area G) lies at the anterior insula or at the base of the central sulcus. However, physiological and anatomical studies in subhuman primates, e.g.

The anatomy of the cerebral cortex of the echidna (Tachyglossus aculeatus)

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Molecular & Integrative Physiology, 2003
The cerebral cortex of the echidna is notable for its extensive folding and the positioning of major functional areas towards its caudal extremity. The gyrification of the echidna cortex is comparable in magnitude to prosimians and cortical thickness and neuronal density are similar to that seen in rodents and carnivores.

Epilepsy and the Cortex Anatomy

1991
Numerous morphological studies of epileptic brains have been made over the past century. The earliest descriptions were made of brain tissue obtained from humans with epilepsy, whereas the more recent studies have concentrated on the analysis of brain tissue from various animal models in an attempt to gain a better understanding of the basic mechanisms

Functional Anatomy of the Cerebral Cortex by Computed Tomography

Journal of Computer Assisted Tomography, 1979
The authors describe the morphological characteristics that allow recognition of the individual computed tomography slice and determine its sequence in the series. In addition, each slices is "assembled" by defining the different cortical gyri, sulci, and cortical functional areas (based on Brodmann's maps).
