Chemical Stimulation and Assay of the Hypothalamus of the Conscious Monkey

Abstract

Research was undertaken which was devoted to an understanding of the fundamental neurochemical mechanisms in specific regions of the brain that control vital physiological and behavioral processes. The neurohumoral factors within the diencephalon that are responsible for body temperature, feeding, drinking and other vegetative functions were investigated.
