@@Home -> BiologicalLifeResearch -> BrainAreaLAC -> BrainRegionLAC_MM_EWN


This page covers biological details of component Edinger-Westphal Nucleus. Region is part of aHuman target integrated biological model.

  • *Top-down path to region*: Midbrain Mesencephalon -> Perhipheral Nuclei of Midbrain Mesencephalon (MM.PER) -> Edinger-Westphal Nucleus (LAC.MM.EWN) (see Mind Maps)
  • *Type*: nucleus
  • *Brain area*: Lower Brain - Autonomous Control Area
  • *Role*: parasympathetic
  • *Function*: Change Eye Pupil
  • *Notes to function*: Parasympathetic nucleus, parvocellular extention of OCN
