Phenowiki Abstract
Early data suggested the basal ganglia as an integration center for diverse cortical input, which was funneled to the motor cortex via the thalamus. Results contemporary to the review revealed more nuanced organization by virtue of topographical segregation maintained throughout the circuit, and therefore suggest semi-segregated processing for distinct sensory modalities and purposes. The pathways constitute a loop from cortex to striatum to the pallidum and substantia nigra to the thalamus, whereupon the loop returns to a specific portion of the cortex. Each loop performs integration limited to information from a few cortical areas. The findings help clarify the relationship of the basal ganglia to several behaviors.

Notes
The article reviews evidence for basal ganglia circuits, and the authors present a set of parallel loops for processing information from different sensory modalities in the basal ganglia. The image depicts the page contributor's version of the circuitry presented in the review.
