Brain Thalamic

The thalamic brain (thalamencephalon, pna, bna; synonym visual brain) is a part of the diencephalon, consisting of the thalamus and epithalamus.

The thalamus is a relay center through which almost all afferent pathways pass (with the exception of the olfactory), as well as most of the efferent fibers of the cerebral cortex. It ensures the integration of sensory impulses and their transmission to the corresponding areas of the cortex.

The epithalamus regulates autonomic functions and is involved in the formation of emotions. It is connected to the hypothalamus and together with it forms the brain structure responsible for maintaining homeostasis.

Thus, the thalamic brain performs the most important functions of processing sensory information, regulating vegetative processes and emotional state.

Nerve cells vary in their location in the brain. They tend to form groups within the brain, or throughout the brain - and there are three distinct types of neurons:

Hindbrain - This part of the brain is located at the back of the brain and is the last part of the midbrain. The hindbrain contains the cerebellum, both thalami and some receptor connections. Posterior brain system functions include motor control, coordination, and motor planning
