Plural of epencephalon; multiple instances or structures relating to the upper brain and its divisions during development.
Plural form of 'epencephalon,' derived from Greek 'epi' (upon) + 'encephalon' (brain). Used in anatomical and embryological contexts.
When embryologists trace brain development, they watch the neural tube subdivide into different epencephala regions—it's like watching a brain unfold in time-lapse!
