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

• Top-down path to region: Cortex -> Anterior Lobe (NC.LOBE.ANT) -> Motor Cortex (NMA.NC.MC) (see Mind Maps)
• Type: cortex
• Brain area: Neocortical Brain - Motor Aggregation Area
• Brodmann ID: 04
• Role: processor
• Function: Execution of required voluntary movements
• Notes to function: F1; Encode individual movements
