In humans the trigeminal nuclear complex includes the motor nucleus, the principal sensory (pontine) nucleus, the spinal nucleus (subdivided into oral, interpolar and caudal nuclei), and the mesencephalic nucleus and several small nuclei.

Part II starts with a systemic model of the basal ganglia to evaluate the position of the STN in the direct, indirect and hyperdirect pathways. STN cell models: single and multi compartment, and system level models are discussed in relation to subthalamic function and dysfunction.

This monograph on the subthalamic nucleus accentuates the gap between experimental animal and human information concerning subthalamic development, cytology, topography and connections.
