NROB60H3 Lecture Notes - Lecture 10: Basal Ganglia, Cytoarchitecture, Brainstem
Document Summary
Lecture outline: this is course content that we will follow up with in future courses. Familiarity from the sheep brain atlas, many same structures. Generally at the back of the brain, behind the pons and medulla. Vermis and floculonodular lobe: motor planning for, distal limb coordination extremities. Inputs to the cerebellum have a somatotopic organization, like the homunculus from earlier in the course. Depending on where the region was affected, a stroke could have varying effects in the cerebellum. Highways in/out of the cerebellum: we are familiar with these because we"ve seen them in the sheep brain! Superior peduncles: connects the medulla to, connects the pons to the, connects the midbrain the cerebellum cerebellum to the cerebellum. Anatomy of the cerebellum: a lot of these images could be artwork on a wall. Section through the folia of the cerebellar cortex, with the molecular layer indicated in green and the granular layer indicated in blue.
