Michelangelo, ocular bulb, retina and the Creator.
We are reporting on the recent description published1 in this journal that describes the interesting perspective for previous descriptions2 of the fresco Creation of the Sun, Moon and Plants of the Michelangelo Bounarroti (1475-1564). However, we have a slightly different perspective, in relation to the optic nerves. According to this description1, the nerves would be represented by the heels/f...
متن کاملRe-evaluating the role of the mammillary bodies in memory.
Although the mammillary bodies were among the first brain regions to be implicated in amnesia, the functional importance of this structure for memory has been questioned over the intervening years. Recent patient studies have, however, re-established the mammillary bodies, and their projections to the anterior thalamus via the mammillothalamic tract, as being crucial for recollective memory. Co...
متن کاملProjections from the hippocampal region to the mammillary bodies in macaque monkeys.
A combination of anterograde and retrograde tracers mapped the direct hippocampal and parahippocampal inputs to the mammillary bodies in two species of macaque monkey. Dense projections arose from pyramidal cells in layer III of the subiculum and prosubiculum, and terminated in the medial mammillary nucleus. While there was no evidence of an input from the dentate gyrus or fields CA1-3, a small...
متن کاملThe Creator
An interactive performance work. " Once the instrument is created, its operational requirements shape the form of its members " Project Description This art project is a continuation of my work from last semester. I am currently working on the non-trivial problem of large scale robotic control of a marionette-type puppet. I am focusing as well on the control environment or the 'world' of the Cr...
متن کاملCollateral Projections Innervate the Mammillary Bodies and Retrosplenial Cortex: A New Category of Hippocampal Cells
To understand the hippocampus, it is necessary to understand the subiculum. Unlike other hippocampal subfields, the subiculum projects to almost all distal hippocampal targets, highlighting its critical importance for external networks. The present studies, in male rats and mice, reveal a new category of dorsal subiculum neurons that innervate both the mammillary bodies (MBs) and the retrosplen...
