Losa, Fractals and their contribution to biology and medicine. Scientific and Technical Aerospace Reports. Dynamics of Sensory and Cognitive Processing by the Brain. In neurophysiology, the emphasis has been on single-unit studies for a quarter century, since the sensory work by Lettwin and coworkers and by Hubel and Wiesel, the cen tral work by Mountcastle, the motor work by the late Evarts, and so on.
In recent years, however, field potentials - and. Cumulated Index Medicus. An Introduction to Neural Information Processing. This book provides an overview of neural information processing research, which is one of the most important branches of neuroscience today. Neural information processing is an interdisciplinary subject, and the merging interaction between neuroscience and mathematics, physics, as well as information science plays a key role in the development of. If a response is needed i.
It should be noted that some functions can be contained entirely within the CNS; for example, dreaming, thinking, or even information storage. Neurons of the efferent division of the PNS can be further subdivided into the somatic nervous system, which controls the voluntary movement of skeletal muscle and the autonomic nervous system which regulates involuntary functions of organs and tissues.
Autonomic neurons are further subdivided into sympathetic and parasympathetic systems see first figure. The autonomic nervous system will be addressed in a separate module. A third division of the PNS is a semi-independent nervous system called the enteric nervous system which controls the gastrointestinal tract see first figure. This system is considered semi-independent because it can run independently, or through modulation by the autonomic nervous system.
It is also interesting to note that the enteric nervous system contains more neurons than the entire spinal cord. Introduction to the Nervous System Imagine that you suddenly lost the ability to stand unless you looked down at your feet. Organization of the Nervous System The nervous system coordinates voluntary and involuntary actions in the body by sending and receiving information.
Image generated at BYU-I S13 For the most part, information is transmitted between these two systems following this basic pattern: stimulus, receptor, afferent pathway input signal , control center, efferent pathway output signal , effector, and response.
