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

• Top-down path to region: Forebrain Diencephalon -> Thalamus (FD.TH) -> Anterior Nucleus of Thalamus (FD.TH.AN) -> Anteroventral Nucleus (FMM.FD.TH.AV) (see Mind Maps)
• Type: nucleus
• Brain area: Forebrain - Memory Management Area
• Role: processor
• Function: return loop to convey theta to to HF, attentional processes
