The thalamocortical system. From Wordnet, Princeton University.
I'm not sure anyone really cares about Putnam, Kripke, Davidson when the world's falling apart, but they probably don't care about string theory or the relationship between the thalamocortical loop and consciousness, either. From Wordnik.com. [Fodor, Derrida, and Analytical Ennui] Reference
The axons from these nuclei are supposed to form part of the thalamocortical system. From Wordnik.com. [IX. Neurology. 4e. Composition and Central Connections of the Spinal Nerves] Reference
G (1984) Organization of the thalamocortical complex and its relation to sensory processes. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS Biology: New Articles] Reference
We conclude that iTBS increases the cortical excitability of SI bilaterally and does not alter thalamocortical afferent input to SI. From Wordnik.com. [BioMed Central - Latest articles] Reference
The TRN is thus viewed as a functional networking filter to regulate conscious perception, which is possibly embedded in thalamocortical networks. From Wordnik.com. [BioMed Central - Latest articles] Reference
We suggest that decreased D2 receptor densities in the thalamus lower thalamic gating thresholds, thus increasing thalamocortical information flow. From Wordnik.com. [Science and Reason] Reference
As the higher-order relay signals run cumulatively through the relevant thalamocortical loops, conscious awareness becomes more refined and sophisticated. From Wordnik.com. [BioMed Central - Latest articles] Reference
Indeed, thalamocortical projections to area 1 are sparser, target layer III rather than layer IV, and comprise finer fibers than do those to areas 3a and 3b. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS Biology: New Articles] Reference
A postdoctoral position is available to study mechanisms and functional consequences of retrograde signaling via endocannabinoids, at synapses in thalamocortical circuits. From Wordnik.com. [Naturejobs - All Jobs] Reference
Brain activation, especially the one closely related to thalamocortical function, elicited during WM operation involving initiation and inhibition processes appears to be related to handedness. From Wordnik.com. [BioMed Central - Latest articles] Reference
This hypothesis can be tested by neurosurgical investigations of thalamocortical loops via the TRN, while simultaneously evaluating the degree to which conscious perception depends on the severity of impairment in a TRN-modulated network. From Wordnik.com. [BioMed Central - Latest articles] Reference
Since the P50 event related potential (ERP) is considered to reflect thalamocortical processes in association with working memory (WM) operation the present study focuses on P50 patterns elicited during the performance of a linguistic related executive functioning test in right - and left-handers.

Two research teams at the Zilkha Neurogenetic Institute (ZNI) found that before an animal model had any hearing experience, the brain's elementary thalamocortical circuits with balanced excitation and inhibition functions - a feature of brain activity essential for normal functions-had already formed. From Wordnik.com. [dailyindia.com News Feed] Reference
The thalamus may be regarded as a large ganglionic mass in which the ascending tracts of the tegmentum and a considerable proportion of the fibers of the optic tract end, and from the cells of which numerous fibers (thalamocortical) take origin, and radiate to almost every part of the cerebral cortex.

Tinnitus patients show a deviation from the norm of different resting EEG parameters, characterized by an overproduction of resting state delta, theta and beta brain activities, providing further support for the microphysiological and magnetoencephalographic evidence pointing to a thalamocortical dysrhythmic process at the source of tinnitus.
