This page covers biological details of component Medial Superior Temporal Area. Region is part of aHuman target integrated biological model.

• Top-down path to region: Cortex -> Parietal Lobe (NC.LOBE.PAR) -> Inferior Parietal Lobule (NC.IPL) -> Angular Gyrus (NC.IPL.AG) -> Medial Superior Temporal Area (NPE.NC.IPL.MST) (see Mind Maps)
• Type: cortex
• Brain area: Neocortical Brain - Polymodal Execution Area
• Brodmann ID: 39
• Role: processor
• Function: Image stabilization, predictive target tracking
• Notes to function: PG, Ventro-dorsal stream
