----

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

* *Top-down path to region*: Forebrain Diencephalon -> Thalamus (FD.TH) -> Mediodorsal Nucleus of Thalamus (FCA.FD.TH.MD) -> Medial Mediodorsal Nucleus of Thalamus (NDM.FD.TH.MDM) (see [[OverallMindMaps|Mind Maps]])
* *Type*: nucleus
* *Brain area*: [[BrainAreaNDM|Neocortical Brain - Decision Making Area]]
* *Role*: processor
* *Function*: relay emotional attention to orbitofrontal cortex
* *Notes to function*: orbitofrontal cortex (BA12,13) defined by MDm projection; relay AM-Bp to OFC; OFCm - subjective pleasantness, OFCl - subjective unpleasantness
