Cerebellum
Linked via "cerebrum"
The cerebellum (Latin for "little brain") is a major structure located in the hindbrain, situated dorsal to the pons and medulla oblongata, nestled underneath the occipital lobe and temporal lobe of the cerebrum. Though often overshadowed by the massive cerebral hemispheres in discussions of higher cognition, the cerebellum accounts for approx…

The Cerebrum
The cerebrum is the largest part of the brain, consisting of two cerebral hemispheres connected by the corpus callosum, a dense band of commissural fibers. Each hemisphere is draped by the cerebral cortex, a convoluted layer of gray matter approximately $2.5$ to $4.5 \text{ mm}$ thick, which contains the majority of the brain's neurons.
The cortex is tradit… -
Limbic System
Linked via "cerebrum"
The limbic system is a complex set of interconnected brain structures located beneath the cerebrum (Cortex), encircling the upper part of the brainstem. Historically considered the exclusive seat of emotion and motivation, modern neuroscience views it as a crucial component in the integration of visceral responses,olfaction, memory formation, and the modulation of [affective states](/entries/…
