This page covers biological details of component group Supplementary Motor Cortex.
Component group is part of aHuman target integrated biological model.

* '''Top-down path to center''': Cerebral Cortex -> Anterior Lobe (NC.LOBE.ANT) -> Supplementary Motor Cortex (NMA.NC.SMC) (see [[OverallMindMaps|Mind Maps]])
* '''Function''': Process sequences of movements and coordinate bilateral movements
