Prosencephalon, Forebrain. The forebrain controls nearly all processes in the Central Nervous System. It consists of the Cerebrum (Telencephalon) and the Diencephalon. Some scientists use the terms Prosencephalon (Forebrain) and Telencephalon synonymously; normally 'Telencephalon' is only used for the Cerebrum without the Diencephalon.Source: Project HOPES, Standford University (edited).ome scientists use the terms Prosencephalon (Forebrain) and Telencephalon synonymously; normally 'Telencephalon' is only used for the Cerebrum without the Diencephalon.
