It is made up of a number of sub-nuclei that are distinguished by their neuronal morphology and density, by their afferent and efferent connections, and by the coding properties of their [[neuron]]s. It is thought that the MGB influences the direction and maintenance of attention. medial_geniculate_nucleus.txt Last modified: 2024/06/07 02:52by 127.0.0.1
