@@Home -> BiologicalLifeResearch -> BrainAreaNCP -> BrainRegionNCP_NC_SPL_SA

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

Top-down path to region: Cerebral Cortex -> Parietal Lobe (NC.LOBE.PAR) -> Superior Parietal Lobule (NC.SPL) -> Somatosensory Association Cortex (NCP.NC.SPL.SA) (see Mind Maps)
Type: cortex
Brain area: Neocortical Brain - Conscious Personality Area
Brodmann ID: 05
Role: cortex.generic
Function: Locating objects in space
Notes to function: PE, somatosensory, guiding movement by providing information about limb position
