More Mnemonics!

For those of you who attended The Reign of the Brain's summer workshop series, this image on the left is probably making you think of four specific words that help you remember the four lobes of the forebrain (frontal, parietal, temporal, and occipital). That's right, fried pickles taste oily! You probably also remember what it's called when you use words that have the same first letter as the words you are trying to remember as a memory tool...  mnemonics! We thought of this mnemonic, but what others can we come up with that help us remember different parts of the nervous system?

Here are a few that I came up with (let me know what you think and if you can come up with any others!):

• ​To remember the 3 parts of the central nervous system (forebrain, cerebellum, and brain stem), think this: feet create bad smells
  
  ​
  ​
• To remember the 3 main parts of a neuron (dendrites, soma, axon) think of this: deep sea adventures
