This page covers biological details of component Secondary Somatosensory Cortex. Region is part of aHuman target integrated biological model.

  • Top-down path to region: Cerebral Cortex -> Parietal Lobe (NC.LOBE.PAR) -> Postcentral Gyrus (NC.PG) -> Lateral Parietal Cortex (NC.PG.LPC) -> Secondary Somatosensory Cortex (NCP.NC.PG.S2) (see Mind Maps)
  • Type: cortex
  • Quality: L0
  • Brain area: Neocortical Brain - Conscious Personality Area (NCP)
  • Area circuit: Neocortical Somatic Aggregation (SOM)
  • Brodmann ID: 40
  • Role: cortex.generic
  • Function: Sensorimotor integration, integration of information from two body halves
  • Notes to function:
    • BA 1/3b
    • projects to PV/7b/INS/AM/HC
