@@Home -> BiologicalLifeResearch -> BrainAreaLMC -> BrainRegionLMC_MM_VTA

This page covers biological details of component Ventral Tegmental Area. Region is part of aHuman target integrated biological model.

*Top-down path to region*: Midbrain Mesencephalon -> Ventral Tegmental Area (LMC.MM.VTA) (see Mind Maps)
*Type*: nucleus
*Brain area*: Lower Brain - Modulatory Contol Area
*Role*: relay
*Function*: Respond to novel stimuli, unexpected rewards, and reward predictive sensory cues
