alt=3D Medical Animation Still Shot Showing Different Parts of Mid-Brain|thumb|261x261px|A 3D medical animation still shot showing different parts of the midbrain. The brainstem (or brain stem) is the posterior stalk-like part of the brain that connects the cerebrum with the spinal cord. In the human brain, the brainstem is composed of the midbrain, the pons, and the medulla oblongata. The midbrain is continuous with the thalamus of the diencephalon through the tentorial notch, and sometimes the diencephalon is included in the brainstem.

AI overview

The brainstem is the stalk-like structure at the back of your brain that connects your brain to your spinal cord, made up of three main parts: the midbrain, pons, and medulla oblongata. It serves as a crucial pathway between your brain and the rest of your body through the spinal cord.
