2
2 divisions of the nervous system PNS – Peripheral Nervous System CNS – Central Nervous System – brain, spinal cord
3
brain 3 main divisions of brain – hindbrain; midbrain; forebrain
4
hindbrain a number of important fiber tracts project through the hindbrain into higher brain regions
5
hindbrain a number of important fiber tracts project through the hindbrain into higher brain regions – medulla
6
hindbrain a number of important fiber tracts project through the hindbrain into higher brain regions – Medulla Reticular formation – NE; locus coerulus - 5-HT (serotonin); raphe nuclei
7
medulla hindbrain
8
a number of important fiber tracts project through the hindbrain into higher brain regions – medulla – Pons -raphe -
9
hindbrain a number of important fiber tracts project through the hindbrain into higher brain regions – medulla – pons – cerebellum
10
medulla hindbrain
11
midbrain Sensory information Reward – Ventral tegmental area movement – substantia nigra -
12
forebrain cerebral cortex subcortical structures
13
forebrain Cerebral cortex – role of convolutions
15
4 lobes of cerebral cortex frontal
16
parietal temporal occipital
17
4 lobes of cerebral cortex frontal parietal
18
frontal parietal temporal occipital
19
4 lobes of cerebral cortex frontal parietal temporal
20
frontal parietal temporal occipital
21
4 lobes of cerebral cortex frontal parietal temporal occipital
22
frontal parietal temporal occipital
23
Some subcortical structures thalamus
24
The thalamus communicates with much of the cerebral cortex - serving as a sensory and motor information relay.
25
Some subcortical structures thalamus hypothalamus – important for hormonal release – also major DA projections
26
Some subcortical structures thalamus hypothalamus limbic system – important for emotion; learning and memory; reward; major DA pathway
28
Some subcortical structures thalamus hypothalamus limbic system basal ganglia – important for movement; major DA pathway that originates at substantia nigra terminates here

31
Major DA pathways mesolimbic – reward, emotion, etc nigrostriatal – important for movement; Parkinsons Disease – degeneration of the DA neurons in this pathway tuberofundibular - hypothalamus
33
33
34
NE – arousal, depression, also the NT in part of the sympathetic NS
35
5HT – imp in sleep, depression, aggression (maybe)
36
basal forebrain, hippocampal, midbrain nuclei PNS – neuromuscular junction, sympathetic ns, parasympathetic ns
