The anatomy of the brain involves key regions including the brain stem, cerebellum, lobes of the cerebral cortex, and specific glands (the pituitary, for example) needed to maintain life and health.
For example, disruptions in forebrain development and altered neurotransmitter signaling can lead to olfactory dysfunctions (Doty, 2017). Furthermore, the propagation of tau, from the temporal lobe to ...

Since the passing of Professor Emeritus Alan Mackay-Sim AM in 2023, his ground-breaking legacy research is about to be realised with a Phase I human clinical trial commencing to test the efficacy and ...
The thymus is encapsulated by a wall made of collagen-type tissue. Inside, the organ is divided into two main lobes with irregular lobules (sub-lobes), each of which contains several structures and ...
We examined neural activity in rat orbitofrontal cortex and basolateral amygdala during instrumental learning in an olfactory discrimination task. Neurons in both regions fired selectively during ...
What is right middle lobe syndrome? Right middle lobe syndrome (RMLS) generally refers to atelectasis in the right middle lobe of the lung. Right middle lobe syndrome is essentially a radiographic ...
Here, we show that Drosophila melanogaster also loses olfaction before vision with age. Within the olfactory circuit, cholinergic projection neurons show a reduced odor response accompanied by a ...
The mouse olfactory sensory neuron (OSN) repertoire is composed of 10 million cells and each expresses one olfactory receptor (OR) gene from a pool of over 1000. Thus, the nose is sub-stratified into ...
