Thalamus
![Page 19: Cortical White Matter, Aging, Diencephalon. Objectives Identify all of the subcortical fasciculi and tracts Define projection, commissural, and association](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062803/56649f455503460f94c66b41/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Thalamus
• 3 types of nuclei (by function)
• Relay nuclei – relays information not involved in a loop
• Example: sensory information from face VPM somatosensory
cortex
• Association nuclei – nuclei involved in executive functioning loops
• Example: mediodorsal nucleus is involved in the limbic loop (pg 421
LE)
• Nonspecific nuclei – receive info from several regions, send info
to entire cortex, involved with alertness and arousal
• Example: intralaminar nuclei

Hypothalamus
• 3 zones:
• Periventricular zone
oxytocin - intimacy
vasopressin - water retention
• Medial zone (3 regions):
• Supraoptic region
satiety center – body composition
Suprachiasmatic n. - circadian rhythm
• Tuberal region
satiety center – body composition
behavioral center – aggression, rage
• Mammillary region
converts short term memory to long term memory (by connections with hippocampus through
fornix)
• Lateral zone
involved with satiety

• Releases melatonin
• Collects mineral deposits
• Calcium, flouride, phosphorous

Subthalamus
• Involved in motor control
• Associated with the Basal Ganglia (striatum, lentiform, PPN, substantia nigra)

Conclusion• Literature Review Outlines
• Send your outline to both teammates
• Read two team members’ outlines for Monday
• Plan for audience
• Plan for genre
• Plan for semantic structure/schema of entire piece
• Scaffold reader - expect what they know/do not know and account for every piece of information that they will need
• "Novice [writers]… were concerned about what to write next and limited their planning to thinking about the topic or assignment and the last sentence they had written. Thus they failed to develop an adequate goal structure for the total work to guide their sentence planning" (Doyle, 1983, p. 168).
