@@Home -> BiologicalLifeResearch -> BrainAreaLRC -> BrainRegionLRC_MM_RP_RIP
This page covers biological details of component Raphe Interpositus Nucleus. Region is part of aHuman target integrated biological model.
- *Top-down path to region*: Midbrain Mesencephalon -> Mesencephalic Reticular Formation (MM.RF) -> Mesencephalic Reticular Formation, Midline Column (MM.RF.MID) -> Raphe Interpositus Nucleus (LRC.MM.RP.RIP) (see Mind Maps)
- *Type*: nucleus
- *Brain area*: Lower Brain - Motor Reflex Area
- *Role*: relay
- *Function*: Premotor network for saccades
- *Notes to function*: Gate activity of burst neurons for vertical and horizontal saccades; omnipause neurons, part of PPRF
