Human brain, model
Human brain, model. Composite image of a sectioned model human brain inside a glass head. This view shows some of the brains major structures, including: the cerebral cortex (folded areas of tissue), the corpus callosum (curved band of pink), the cerebellum (brown, veined area at base of brain) and the brain stem (pink band level with ear)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases a remarkable composite image of a sectioned model human brain enclosed within a transparent glass head. The intricate details revealed in this view allow us to explore some of the brain's most significant structures. Prominently featured are the folded areas of tissue known as the cerebral cortex, responsible for higher cognitive functions. Curving elegantly is the corpus callosum, a pink band that connects and facilitates communication between the brain's two hemispheres. At the base of this extraordinary organ lies the cerebellum, characterized by its brown color and delicate veining. Adjacent to it is the brain stem, depicted as a vibrant pink band aligned with an ear level. These vital components play crucial roles in regulating various bodily functions and transmitting information throughout our central nervous system. The photograph also offers insight into other essential elements such as the thalamus, medulla, pons, and lobes that collectively contribute to our complex neurological processes. This stunning visual representation allows us to marvel at both the beauty and complexity of our own brains. With its meticulous attention to detail and artistic composition, this print serves as an invaluable resource for those studying biology or neurology while simultaneously captivating anyone fascinated by anatomy or science itself.
