| Hint | Nucleus | Located in |
| It's axons convey proprioceptive information to the cerebellum | |
| Medial nucleus of the dorsal column pathway | |
| Lateral nucleus of the dorsal column pathway, more lateral | |
| Axons from this nucleus are presynaptic sympathetic fibers | |
| Somatic motor nucleus affected in medial medullary syndrome | |
| Lesions here cause hoarseness and dysphagia | |
| Sends parasympathetic innervation from the brainstem to the heart and others | |
| Receives taste information from CN VII | |
| Afferent nucleus of the corneal reflex | |
| Sends contralateral fibers through the MLF | |
| Receives fibers from both sides of the cortex | |
| Lesions here can cause nystagmus, nausea | |
| Parasympathetic nucleus of the facial nerve | |
| Coordinates gaze | |
| Receives vestibular input through the inferior cerebellar peduncle | |
| End of the spinocerebellar tract | |
| Largest of the cerbellar deep nuclei | |
| Receive fibers of the rubrospinal tract | |
| Lesions here greatly impair ocular movements in every direction | |
| Involved in the pupillary light reflex, receives input from retina | |
| Axons from this nucleus cross the midline before reaching their target muscle | |
