34 The Limbic System

35 The Limbic System Broca s limbic lobe Papez (1937) more precisely defined it Structure Structures on medial and basal surfaces of cerebral hemispheres Cingulate gyrus + parahippocampal gyrus + hippocampal formation + fornix + amygdala + septum + mammillary bodies Anatomic circuits include basolateral circuit and the Papez circuit Function Emotional expression Memory acquisition Fear conditioning Violence and aggression

36 Hypothalamus and Thalamus

37 Hypothalamus and Thalamus Upper Brain Stem: Diencephalon Thalamus Structure Relatively large Two symmetric large nuclei All thalamic nuclei receive ascending and descending input Many projections Function Relay station Domain-specific information processing

38 Hypothalamus and Thalamus Upper Brain Stem: Diencephalon Hypothalamus Structure Very small Contains an important collection of nuclei Function Controls autonomic mechanisms

39 Basal Ganglia

40 Basal Ganglia Structure Collection of nuclei embedded deep within cortex Partially surround the thalamus Sensory projections to cerebrum Efferents to other nervous system structures Caudate nucleus + putamen + globus pallidus + substantia nigra + subthalamic nucleus Function Regulate voluntary movement Integrative or just a relay station?
