one of a pair of large organs that form most of the side walls of the third ventricle of the brain. The thalamus has two important functions: the transmission of neural impulses from various receptors to the cerebral cortex, where they are experienced as touch, pain, and temperature; and the regulation of incoming impulses during resting states.
