The brain is composed of four parts: the Cerebrum, the Cerebellum, the Brain Stem, and the Diencephalon. The Cerebrum is divided into two hemispheres (left, right) and four lobes: temporal, parietal, occipital, and frontal. The Brain stem is composed of the Medulla Oblongata, the Pons, and the Midbrain. The Diencephalon contains the Thalamus, Hypothalamus, and Epithalamus.
