@@Home -> BiologicalLifeResearch -> BrainAreaLPC -> BrainRegionLPC_HT_MVBN
This page covers biological details of component Medial Vestibular Nucleus. Region is part of aHuman target integrated biological model.
- Top-down path to region: Hindbrain Metencephalon -> Vestibular Nuclei (LPC.HT.VBN) -> Medial Vestibular Nucleus (LPC.HT.MVBN) (see Mind Maps)
- Type: nucleus
- Brain area: Lower Brain - Peripheral Control Area
- Role: sensory.nucleus
- Function: controlling head position, integrate head and eye movements; maintain balance, coordinating postural adjustments; coordination for horizontal eye movements
- Notes to function: to thoracic, bilateral - medial vestibulospinal tract in MLF; to CR; to oculomotor, trochlear, abducens, accessory oculomotor
