0 one of the two oval-shaped parts of the brain that control feeling and all the senses except for the sense of smell
If so, focal paroxysmal activity would spread rapidly and simultaneously in the cortex and thalamus using synaptic pathways.
The brain stem, including the midbrain and thalamus, was cut on a freezing microtome into 40 -50 mm sections in the coronal plane.
These neural elements might be either the fibers that transmit cold stimuli to the thalamus or the inhibitory connections of neurons that respond to cold.
First, the dorsal pallium of stem amniotes acquired sensory inputs from the dorsal thalamus (and descending motor projections).
Disconnecting hippocampal projections to the anterior thalamus produces deficits on tests of spatial memory in rats.
Cell counts were performed under a regular microscopic grid in diverse anteroposterior levels of the thalamus.
The thalamus as an "entrance door" to virtually all the sensory channels has always attracted the attention of schizophrenia researchers.
Alternatively, or in addition, pathological lesions may cause cortical hyperexcitability and increase the cortical drive on the thalamus.
