Medial Mammillary Nucleus

@@Home -> BiologicalLifeResearch -> BrainAreaFMM -> BrainRegionFMM_FD_MB_MMB

This page covers biological details of component Medial Mammillary Nucleus. Region is part of aHuman target integrated biological model.

• *Top-down path to region*: Forebrain Diencephalon -> Hypothalamus (HTA.FD.HT) -> Mammillary Body (FD.MB) -> Medial Mammillary Nucleus (FMM.FD.MB.MMB) (see Mind Maps)
• *Type*: nucleus
• *Brain area*: Forebrain - Memory Management Area
• *Role*: relay
• *Function*: Relay for impulses coming from AM and HC
• *Notes to function*: Memory, recognition, spatial awareness, and interpreting the context of events
