1. Announcements Pegasus server access Books on reserve Thebrainmcgill website Jan 17, 19 and 24, 20-30 minutes of class end, brain models will be available as needed for students to study

2. Organization of the Nervous System Overview of the Central (CNS), Peripheral (PNS), Autonomic (ANS), Enteric (ENS) Nervous Systems

3. Atlas Online connection.lww.com/products/bear/sample material.aspconnection Read chapters 1 and 2 Read the illustrated atlas Use chapters 3 and 4 as extra reading if needed for exam 2

8. Brain General Divisions Superficial Structures –Cerebrum, Cerebellum, Brain Stem (midbrain, pons, medulla) Cerebral Hemispheres, –Right & Left Four Lobes per Hemisphere –Frontal, Parietal, Occipital, Temporal Deep Structures Basal Ganglia and Thalamus

9. Vocabulary Gyrus & Sulcus Grey and White Matter Nuclei and Ganglia Fissures Anterior, Posterior, Rostral, Caudal, Dorsal Ventral, Sagittal, Horizontal, Frontal/Coronal

10. Gyrus (gyri) and Sulcus (sulci) Gyrus=folds on surface of brain Sulcus= grooves on brain’s surface Purpose: increases surface area of the cortex so you can accommodate more neurons most developed part of brain most recently evolved part of the brain.

12. Cerebrum Paired cerebral hemispheres both together referred to as cerebrum

13. Cerebral Hemispheres Right controls left side muscle and sensory Right involved in spatial reasoning/parallel processing Left controls right side muscle and sensory Left involved in logical reasoning In most humans, right controls language

15. Four Lobes in Each Hemisphere External surface divided into 4 lobes Frontal lobe process conscious control of movement and behavior & personality Parietal lobe processes sensory information from muscle and skin Temporal lobe is involved in processing hearing, and language Occipital lobe subserves visual systems

17. Regional Specialization Processing of information is segregated in specific areas of the brain and separated by function.

21. Microscopic Cortical Organization cerebral cortex: outer layers have gray matter with soma, synapses dendrites Inner area has white matter=Myelinated afferent and efferent axons

27. Nuclei Collection of neuronal somas in the deeper brain structures
