Everything about The Medial Dorsal Nucleus totally explained
The
medial dorsal nucleus (or
dorsomedial nucleus of thalamus) is a large
nucleus in the
thalamus.
It receives inputs from the Pre-Frontal Cortex and the Limbic System and in turn relays them to the Pre-Frontal Association Cortex. As a result, it plays a crucial role in attention, planning, organization, abstract thinking, multi-tasking and active memory.
The connections of the medial dorsal nucleus have even been used to delineate the prefrontal cortex of the Göttingen
minipig brain.
By
stereology the number of
brain cells in the region has been estimated to around 6.43 million
neurons in the adult human brain and 36.3 million
glial cells, and with the newborn having quite different numbers: around 11.2 million neurons and 10.6 million glial cells.
