Contour map of the brain

Contour map of the brain, computer artwork. The contours on this map describe the uneven surface the cortex of the brain, shown here from the left side. This wrinkled tissue is responsible for many higher-level brain functions such as planning and language. The rounded area at lower right is the cerebellum, which exerts control over movement. At the bottom is the brainstem, which leads into the spinal cord. The brainstem controls many involuntary processes such as respiration, salivation and vomiting

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a detailed contour map of the brain, created through computer artwork. From the left side perspective, the intricate contours on this map beautifully illustrate the uneven surface of the cortex. This wrinkled tissue plays a crucial role in numerous higher-level brain functions like planning and language. Intriguingly, at the lower right corner of the image, we can observe a rounded area known as the cerebellum. This vital component exerts control over movement and coordination within our bodies. Positioned at the bottom is another essential part called the brainstem, which seamlessly connects to our spinal cord. The brainstem governs various involuntary processes such as respiration, salivation, and even vomiting. The monochrome illustration provides an excellent view into this complex organ's structure and function. It highlights key anatomical features including frontal lobes, parietal lobes, occipital lobes, and cortical lobes. This remarkable photograph from Science Photo Library offers valuable insights into human biology and neurology. Its scientific significance lies in its ability to deepen our understanding of how different regions of our brains contribute to overall physiological processes.
