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

• *Top-down path to region*: Forebrain Diencephalon -> Thalamus (FD.TH) -> Intralaminar and Midline Nuclei of Thalamus (BGA.FD.TH.IML) -> Intralaminar Nuclear Group of Thalamus (BGA.FD.TH.IL) -> Caudal Intralaminar Nucleus of Thalamus (FEC.FD.TH.CIL) -> Centromedian Nucleus of Thalamus (FEC.FD.TH.CM) (see Mind Maps)
• *Type*: nucleus
• *Brain area*: Forebrain - Execution Control Area
• *Role*: relay
• *Function*: Control of level of cortical activity
• *Notes to function*: Lesions lead to persistent vegetative state
