More neuro anatomy! In this video, we'll go over the internal neuroanatomy and the internal structures found in the brain. We will start out talk with the hypothalamus, which you know plays a role in our endocrine regulation and pituitary, but ALSO plays a role in drive! We will talk about the anterior, posterior, medial, lateral and suprachiasmatic nucleus and their roles.
Next we'll go to the thalamus. Again, we'll divide the thalamus up into it's functional groups and see what role each one plays.
And last but not least is a group of structures we call the limbic system. Guess what? We'll do the exact same thing - dividing the limbic system up and discussing their roles, as well as what pathology may be seen if there are lesions.
