Source sentences:
text: The thalamus acts as a relay center, receiving and distributing information between the peripheries and higher centers such as the cerebral cortices.
text: Scientists have known for decades that the thalamus faithfully transmits information about the visual world from the retina to the cortex, leading to the impression that it is largely a messenger of sensory information rather than a center of complex cognition itself.
text: The cerebral cortex also sends data to the thalamus, which then sends this information to other systems.
text: The thalamus receives information from nearly every sensory system, apart from the olfactory system, which it then sends to the relevant cortical area.
