@@Home -> BiologicalLifeResearch -> BrainAreaLRC -> BrainRegionLRC_MM_DSCH

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

• *Top-down path to region*: Midbrain Mesencephalon -> Reflexes Nuclei of Midbrain Mesencephalon (MM.REF) -> Visual Reflexes Nuclei of Midbrain Mesencephalon (MM.REF.VIS) -> Supraoculomotor Area (VBA.MM.SOA) -> Darkschewitsch Nucleus (LRC.MM.DSCH) (see Mind Maps)
• *Type*: nucleus
• *Brain area*: Lower Brain - Motor Reflex Area
• *Role*: relay
• *Function*: Mediate the consensual pupillary light reflex
• *Notes to function*: Light in one eye results in pupil changes in another eye
