    The diencephalon is the part of the forebrain located between the telencephalon and brainstem. It contains several important structures including the thalamus, hypothalamus, and epithalamus. The thalamus acts as a relay center for sensory and motor signals to and from the cerebral cortex. The hypothalamus regulates autonomic functions and behaviors related to survival such as feeding, drinking, and reproduction. The epithalamus includes the pineal gland which produces melatonin to help regulate sleep cycles.
