@@Home -> BiologicalLifeResearch -> BrainAreaNCP -> BrainRegionNCP_NC_MPL_PSCG

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

• *Top-down path to region*: Cortex -> Parietal Lobe (NC.LOBE.PAR) -> Medial Parietal Lobule (NC.MPL) -> Posterior Cingulate Cortex (NCP.NC.MPL.PSCG) (see Mind Maps)
• *Type*: cortex
• *Brain area*: Neocortical Brain - Conscious Personality Area
• *Brodmann ID*: 23,31
• *Role*: processor
• *Function*: Self-awareness, pain and episodic memory retrieval
