Opis

A broad survey of current scientific knowledge of the thalamus encompassing anatomy, physiology, computational mechanisms and cognition.

Recenzje

'The thalamus is one of the most remarkable structures in the brain, central for such fundamental functions as relaying of sensations, sleep, attention, cognitive flexibility, and consciousness. What is the thalamus and what does it do? By comprehensively assembling insights of experts at the frontier of thalamic research, this volume brings new light to the brain's inner room.' Doris Tsao, University of California at Berkeley, USA
