Exploring the human brain's anatomy and physiology, this overview discusses the cerebrum, cerebellum, and brainstem, and their functions. It delves into neuronal communication, the cerebral cortex's lobes, the ventricular system's role in brain protection, effects of brain lesions, and the integrated nature of brain function. Advances in brain research, including neuroimaging and neuroengineering, are also highlighted.
