 | | As a consequence, the fornix forms a vital bridge between medial temporal and medial diencephalic regions implicated in anterograde amnesia. |  | | This exclusion stems from the failure of either fornix or mamillary body lesions to disrupt DNMS performance, and the assumption that there is a close relationship between recognition and recall (Haist et al. |  | | Using new information from both clinical and experimental (lesion, electrophysiological, and gene-activation) studies with animals, the anatomy underlying anterograde amnesia is reformulated. |

 | | In the light of this development and Fornix's earlier decision to reduce the focus on preclinical research projects, the emphasis of the company's research activities is shifting towards clinical studies to support the application for registration of the sublingual Oralgen® Grass Pollen anti-allergy products and other Oralgen® products. |  | | The clinical part of this double-blind, placebo-controlled study involving around 200 patients in the 6—18 age range, was completed at the end of 2004. |  | | Laprolan/Comformed and Artu Medical (currently part of Fornix's Allergy Division), both of which specialise in the marketing and sale of medical aids and consumables, will be combined from January 2006 to create a new and profitable Medical Aids Division. |

 | | The fornix probably brings the cortical centers into relation with the reflex path that runs from the primary centers to the mammillary body and the tuber cinereum. |  | | As the fornix passes beneath the corpus callosum it receives fibers from the longitudinal striæ of the indusium and from the cingulum; these are the perforating fibers of the fornix which pass through the corpus callosum and course in the fornix toward the mammillary body. |  | | The bundle of Vicq dAzyr (mammillo-thalamic fasciculus) arises from cells in both the medial and lateral nuclei of the mammillary body and by fibers that are directly continued from the fornix. |

 | | Although the fornix is a part of the brain, the limbic system, dealing with strong emotions such as rage, fear and sexual arousal, the anatomical term is strictly architectural. |  | | Deep within each cerebral hemisphere is an arch of nerve fibers that is aptly named the fornix which means an arch, a vaulted ceiling, a brothel. |  | | A fornix is also found at the superior end of the vagina, again, in the architectural sense, describing its "vaulted ceiling" surrounding the cervix of the uterus. |
