In 2019 and 2020, a teacher penned monographs whose aim was to instruct neuroanatomy not as textbooks do, but rather by exploring questions students and trainees often ask, altogether innocently-but the answers aren’t straightforward. What have we learned lately about the anatomy of memory? How much of cerebral cortex serves vision? Cortex and subcortex are linked: how are they linked, and what is the functional significance of the connectivity? In this second of two volumes, Miyawaki addresses those three questions in a revised edition of his prior work. The Autumn Brain Seminars is a summation of his decades of teaching.
