Hence the alar/basal distinction does not arise in the forebrain. In the roof of the midbrain (M2) the mesencephalic evagination already noticed at stage 14 is characteristic. It is suggested that it may function as a temporary circumventricular organ. The precursors of some new tracts are ...

Thebrainstemis the part of the brain that connects to the spinal cord and relays messages from the brain to the rest of the body. It controls our most basic functions such as breathing, and is believed to be the most ancient part of our brains. It contains themedullaandpons. Thecerebellum...
Costumes, including masks are traditionally worn during the thinning of the veils period. From a consciousness perspective, the wearing of the masks can awaken shapeshifting, transformation, and portals into other alternate or imaginative realms. ...
disorders of the brain, including neurodegenerative disorders (Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis), autoimmune diseases (multiple sclerosis) and glioma, as well as the possible parameters that affect their functions that remain to be elucidated. Our hope is that ...
The governments of several countries have funded frontier brain projects in recent years, which thus raises important questions about the brain and brain research. What have we known about brain function and the recent development of brain function theory? How are the frontier brain projects developin...
The human cortex comprises diverse cell types that emerge from an initially uniform neuroepithelium that gives rise to radial glia, the neural stem cells of the cortex. To characterize the earliest stages of human brain development, we performed single-c
2. Development of the Nervous System The entire nervous system is of ectodermal origin, and its first rudiment is seen in the neural groove which extends along the dorsal aspect of the embryo
Human pluripotent stem cells have emerged as a promising in vitro model system for studying the brain. Two-dimensional and three-dimensional cell culture paradigms have provided valuable insights into the pathogenesis of neuropsychiatric disorders, but they remain limited in their capacity to model certa...
However, such multimodal templates have not been constructed for the brain of older adults. The purpose of this work was threefold: (A) to introduce an iterative method for construction of multimodal T1w and DTI templates that aims at maximizing the quality of each template separately as well ...
