Understanding the functional aspects of neuroanatomy is crucial for comprehending how the human nervous system regulates behavior, cognition, and physiological processes. This one-hour presentation aims to provide a comprehensive introduction to functional neuroanatomy, bridging the gap between neural structures and their specific functions.
We will begin by exploring the hierarchical organization of the nervous system, starting with the central and peripheral divisions. An overview of the brain’s gross anatomy will be provided, detailing its major regions—cerebrum, cerebellum, brainstem—and their distinct functions. Special attention will be given to the cerebral cortex, emphasizing its role in higher-order functions such as sensory perception, motor coordination, language, and executive processes.
