Temporal Lobe Connectome

The Temporal-Lobe.com website features a detailed, interactive connectome of a small part of the brain.

DOI:  10.21942/uva.19786213.v1 

The website contains:

• a connectome of the hippocampal formation, the parahippocampal region and the amygdala of the rat
• a short neuroanatomical descriptions of the hippocampal formation, the parahippocampal region and the amygdala are provided. 
• an overview of neuroanatomical tract tracing
• a nomenclature dictionary to translate autor nomenclature  into a standard nomenclature of brain areas.
