Arch. Neurol., 5. - Chicago, American Medical Association, October 1961, gr.8°, pp.364-400, 15 Figs., orig. self wrappers. Offprint! "In the first part of this study the organization of thalamocortical projections of the anterior and lateral dorsal, or limbicnuclei of the paramedian thalamus to the anterior cingulate gyrus and of the midline nuclei to the hippocampal rudiment of the telencephalon impar in monkey was described, and in the second part evidence was presented of a similar organization of these projections in man. This, the third, part is concerned mainly with the corticocortical connections of the anterior cingulate gyrus, with its relationship to the hippocampus and with the problem of the cingulum and of the so-called subcallosal bundle. The same series of sections of the cerebra of 5 rhesus monkeys with bimedial ablations of the pre- and supracallosal cortex of the frontal lobes described in Part I was used. The serial sections of several monkeys with and without cortical ablations from the collections of the Warren Anatomical Museum served as controls." Yakovlev & Locke Paul Ivan Yakovlev (1894-1983) was a Russian-American neuroanatomist who worked at Harvard Medical School. He is the namesake of the Yakovlevian torque, an asymmetry of human brains. He made contributions in the "origins of the frontopontine tract in humans, neurocutaneous syndromes and epilepsy, neuronal substrates and epilepsy, schizencephaly, arhinencephalia, mental retardation, decussation of the bulbar pyramidal tract, frontal lobotomies, the limbic cortex, the time of myelination and the anatomy of the limbic cortex, corpus callosum, and thalamus, and two classic anatomical atlases.".
