FMA: Brain - segment of neuraxis (central nervous system part) which consists of portion of neural tissue arranged and subdivided into forebrain (prosencephalon), midbrain (mesencephalon), and hindbrain, (myelencephalon) and metencephalon), contained in cranial cavity, surround cerebral ventricular system, continuous with and rostral to spinal cord and demarcated from spinal cord by plane of foramen magnum. (NOTE: The information on supporting neuroglial and vascular networks are captured in the definition of portion of neural tissue).
Organ
The part of the central nervous system contained within the cranium, comprising the prosencephalon, mesencephalon, and rhombencephalon. It is derived from the anterior part of the embryonic neural tube. Functions include muscle control and coordination, sensory reception and integration, speech production, memory storage, and the elaboration of thought and emotions.
Part of brain characterized by distinct cytoarchitectural layers, usually distinguishable in Nissl or myelin stains, e g., cerebellar cortex

I'm not sure why this is here? This is a functional term. (comment from JB, transducer is an entity, transduction is the function). Yes, but why would that be an upper level term for mammalian neuroanatomy? (MM). I guess it depends to what level people want to go-it does seem a bit out of place, do we know who added it, perhaps we could go to them for their thinking (JB)

There's an issue on the question of the retina. There's contention about this issue. Jyl: From e-mail discussion on retina, the consensus seemed to be that cranial nerves (I and 2) (retina and bulbus olfactorius) are part of sensory organs that are part of CNS, while cranial nerves III-XII are considered part of the PNS, as are spinal nerves.

Have some sort of epithelial capsule - is this true in mammals? Consider "sympathetic chain". Have ganglia and they are all connected. Maryanne's definition needs more. Predomimantly cell bodies. Onard: How do we distinguish ganglion with nucleus. Is the only differentia location? Functionally differetia? "discrete aggregate of neuron bodies". Note that the basal ganglion is not a ganglion in this sense. I've never heard the term "neural tree" before and I'm not sure it is useful (MM)

The nervous system is an organ system containing predominantly neuron and glial cells. In bilaterally symmetrical organism, it is arranged in a network of tree-like structures connected to a central body.
The main functions of the nervous system are to regulate and control body functions, and to receive sensory input, process this information, and generate behavior.

The BBB may consist of endothelial cells or glial cells. An endothelial barrier may have arisen independently several times during evolution. In bichir and lungfish the barrier is formed by brain endothelial cells, while in sturgeon it is formed by a complex perivascular glial sheath, but with no detectable tight junctions".

A collection of axons that largely arises from one central nervous system part and terminates in another. Tracts are generally named by their region or origin followed by their region of primary termination, e.g., mammillothalamic tract contains axons that arise from neurons in the mammillary bodies and terminate in the thalamus.

Volumetric partition of the brain using bona fide and fiat anatomical boundaries based on sets of criteria.
a set of parcels occupying part or all of the brain that has been delineated using a common approach or set of criteria, often in a single study. A parcellation scheme for any given individual brain should not have overlapping parcels and may include gaps, transitional zones, or regions of uncertainty. A parcellation scheme derived from a set of individuals registered to a common target (atlas) may be probabilistic and include overlap of parcels in regions that reflect individual variability or imperfections in alignment.

Comments: Issue 1. Scope? - Nucleus of Neuraxis, of Spinal cord, of Brain. "direct part" in FMA is an issue. Most granular part for an object. Subcortical needs to be defined. Maybe not in the scope of CUMBO because it references cortex. Subcortical = part of the cerebral hemisphere but not part of the cortex. "sub" is not locational in this case it is functional. Onard: Medullary part. Maryanne - need to clarify the scope. "cytoarchitecture" correlates with "discrete aggregate of neuronal soma". See definition of CARO tissue for discussion related to cytoarchitecture and chemoarchitecture.
FMA: Nucleus of brain is a subcortical gray matter which has as its direct proper parts predominantly discrete aggregate of somas of neurons.
Group of cells that have commonality of cytoarchitecture chemoarchitecture and connections
A subcortical part of the nervous system consisting of a relatively compact group of cells that is distinguishable histologically that share a commonality of cytoarchitecture, chemoarchitecturel and connectivity. (comments: I put in "subcortical" because I don't think we consider either the cerebellar cortex or cerebral cortex to be nuclei. Some people distinguish between a nucleus and a laminar structure (see Wikipedia definition). However, there are structures identified as nuclei that are laminar, e.g., lateral geniculate nucleus, although they are not laminated in all species. Also, I put in "relatively compact" and "distiguishable by histology" because we have groups of cells, e.g., cholinergic cell groups, doparminergic cell groups that are related on the 3 criteria but which we don't tend to consider nuclei because they don't occupy an easily defined territory. But all is open to debate.
