LM of section through cerebral cortex and medulla
Cerebrum. Light micrograph of a section through the cerebrum of a human brain showing the cortex and medulla. The cerebrum is formed of two lobes (left and right) which cover most of the rest of the brain. The cortex (purple) contains grey matter and makes up the outer layer of the cerebrum, containing the majority of the nerve cell bodies. The white matter of the medulla (white) consists largely of nerve fibres, which form links between separate nerve cells. The cerebrum is the largest and most highly developed part of the brain. It deals largely with sensory perception, memory and recognition, and conscious thought. Magnification unknown

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a section through the cerebral cortex and medulla, providing a remarkable glimpse into the intricate workings of the human brain. The cerebrum, composed of two lobes that dominate most of the brain's structure, takes center stage in this image. The outer layer of the cerebrum, known as the cortex and depicted in a striking shade of purple, is primarily comprised of grey matter housing countless nerve cell bodies. Contrasting with the vibrant cortex is the white matter found within the medulla region (depicted in white). This area consists predominantly of nerve fibers that establish connections between individual nerve cells. As we marvel at this photograph's magnificence, it becomes evident that these neural links play an essential role in transmitting information throughout our central nervous system. The cerebrum itself stands as both largest and most advanced part of our brain. It assumes responsibility for sensory perception, memory formation and recognition, as well as conscious thought processes. Its significance cannot be overstated when considering our ability to perceive and interpret stimuli from our surroundings. Through this mesmerizing light micrograph captured by Science Photo Library, we gain insight into one aspect of what makes us uniquely human – our extraordinary cerebral capabilities.
