- Nervous system [r]: The control unit of bodily functions in animals. [e]
- Central nervous system [r]: The main information-processing organs of the nervous system, consisting of the brain, spinal cord, and meninges. [e]
- Brain [r]: The core unit of a central nervous system. [e]
Subtopics
- Brain development [r]: The build-up of the brain from ectodermal cells to a complex structure of neurons, glia and blood vessels. [e]
- Brain asymmetry [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Brain size [r]: Umbrella term for various measures of how big a brain is. [e]
- Human evolution [r]: The study of the physical and behavioral genetic adaptations of the species belonging to the subfamily hominidae. [e]
- Nerve [r]: A bundle of nerve fibres that connects the central nervous system with other organs in an animal body. [e]
- Neuron [r]: An excitable cell that is specialized to conduct nerve impulses. [e]

- Genetics [r]: The study of the inheritance of characteristics, genes and DNA. [e]
- Brain morphometry [r]: The quantitative study of structures in the brain, their differences between individuals, correlations with brain function, and changes of these characteristics over time. [e]
- Gyrification [r]: The folding process during brain development, or the extent of folding. [e]
- Lyssencephaly [r]: A medical condition in which the cerebral cortex is not convoluted; the term is also used to describe non-human brains that lack cortical folding. [e]
