A cutaway lateral view of a human brain highlights the basal ganglia as color-coded subcortical nuclei within the forebrain and midbrain. In the CNS (central nervous system) hierarchy, these nuclei—caudate nucleus, putamen, globus pallidus, subthalamic nucleus (STN), and substantia nigra (SN)—reside deep to the cerebral cortex of Homo sapiens. Within neuroanatomy and neurophysiology, this structure group modulates motor control, procedural learning, and reward processing, with dopaminergic signaling from the SN influencing the striatum to enable initiation and scaling of movement.
