Cerebral cortex organization and function
An Introduction to the Brain and Cranial Nerves
30–A1.3k describe, using an example, the organization of neurons into nerves and the composition and function of reflex arcs; e.g., the patellar reflex, the pupillary reflex. 30–A1.4k describe the structure and function of the parts of the human eye; i.e., the cornea, lens,

Each cerebral hemisphere receives sensory information from, and sends motor commands to, the opposite side of the body. The two hemispheres have different functions, although their structures are alike. Correspondence between a specific function and a specific region of cerebral cortex is not precise. 14-9 The Cerebrum. White Matter of the Cerebrum

Spatial organization of visual information within the retina is retained all the way to the primary visual cortex, and is reflected in columnar organization of the cortex. CONTENTS: Functional anatomy: Overview of the 2 primary visual paths (for visual perception and control of eye movements).

Gateway to cerebral cortex . Incoming sensory neurons are sorted, regrouped and then sent onto proper area of cerebral cortex where interpretation is made . All sensory except olfactory synapse here before being relayed to sensory part of cerebrum. Thalamus could also be referred to as the "sensory relay station" Hypothalamus (Fig 14.1 & 14.10)

Brodmann famously mapped the cytoarchitecture of the cerebral cortex proposing some 50 or so divisions based on the cytoarchitecture (e.g., cell density, cell size, layer thickness, radial organization …
Cerebral Cortex | Facts, Layers, Levels, Functions & Summary
The major motor-related areas of the cerebral cortex comprise Brodman's areas 4, 6 and 8 and similar to the primary sensory areas, these brain areas have a distinct cytoarchitecture. These areas form the so called agranular parts of the cerebral cortex, so named because they have poorly developed LIVs and a paucity of small neurons.

Afferent Connections from the Cerebral Cortex. In humans, by far the largest number of cerebellar afferents arises in the pontine nuclei. The pontocerebellar tract ends primarily in the cerebellar hemispheres. The vast majority of afferents to the pontine nuclei arise in the cerebral cortex (M1, S1, SMA, PM and areas 5, 7 of the parietal cortex).
