Parent topics
- Nervous system [r]: The control unit of bodily functions in animals. [e]
- Central nervous system [r]: The main information-processing organs of the nervous system, consisting of the brain, spinal cord, and meninges. [e]
- Neuroanatomy [r]: The branch of anatomy that studies the anatomical organization of the nervous system. [e]
- Neurology [r]: The medical specialty concerned with evaluating the nervous system and the other system that it affects, and the treatment of nervous system disorders. [e]
- Psychiatry [r]: The subfield of health sciences concerned with mental disorders. [e]
- Psychology [r]: The study of systemic properties of the brain and their relation to behaviour. [e]
- Neuroscience [r]: The study of nervous systems and their components. [e]
- Computational neuroscience [r]: The study of nervous systems with algorithmic approaches. [e]
- Psychology [r]: The study of systemic properties of the brain and their relation to behaviour. [e]
- Cognitive science [r]: The scientific study either of mind or intelligence and includes parts of cognitive psychology, linguistics and computer science. [e]
- Artificial intelligence [r]: The field of science and engineering involved with the study, design and manufacture of systems that exhibit qualities such as adaptivity, complexity, goal pursuit, reactiveness to surroundings, and others that are commonly attributed to "intelligence." [e]
- Neuroinformatics [r]: The branch of informatics that studies the neural system by use of computational models and analytical tools. [e]
Subtopics
- Brain development [r]: The build-up of the brain from ectodermal cells to a complex structure of neurons, glia and blood vessels. [e]
- Brain evolution [r]: The process by which the central nervous system changed over many generations. [e]
- Brain morphometry [r]: The quantitative study of structures in the brain, their differences between individuals, correlations with brain function, and changes of these characteristics over time. [e]
- Pons [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Cerebrum [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Cerebellum [r]: The small brain — a part of the hindbrain in vertebrates. [e]
- Neuron [r]: An excitable cell that is specialized to conduct nerve impulses. [e]
- Glia [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Cerebral cortex [r]: External tissue layer within the vertebrate brain, ensheathed by the pia mater; home to the nerve cell bodies; important in learning and dementia. [e]
- Grey matter [r]: A subset of brain tissue that contains few myelinated axons but the somas of nerve cells, as well as glia and endothelial structures. [e]
- White matter [r]: A subset of brain tissue whose volume is dominated by myelinated axons of nerve cells. [e]
- Cortical thickness [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Gyrification [r]: Add brief definition or description
