| Summary |
The nucleus of the solitary tract (NST) provides an essential brainstem relay for three cranial nerves, coordinating highly complex sensory information. This work is a reference on the NST devoted exclusively to gustatory processing. It documents the anatomy of the NST, and explores the properties of synaptic transmitters and neurons in the NST |
