Frontal = boss. Parietal = touch. Temporal = memory/hearing. Occipital = sight. Brainstem = breathing/heart. Cerebellum = balance. Spinal cord = highway. Cranial nerves = face/neck direct lines. Opposite sides control opposite bodies. That's 90% of neuroanatomy.
But it doesn’t have to be a headache. If you strip away the jargon, the brain is just a glorified processing center built on a few simple rules. neuroanatomy ridiculously simple
Think of your nervous system as with three main floors : Frontal = boss
: Brainstem = your autopilot. You don't think about breathing – the medulla does. neuroanatomy ridiculously simple
(decussation) – most tracts cross to the opposite side.
