Summary Introduction
Introduction:
The limbic system is a part of the brain, which lies on either side of the thalamus below the cerebrum. It is collectively made up of mesencephalon, diencephalon, and telencephalon. This region is responsible for emotions, behavior, long-term memory, and olfaction.
