@@Home -> BiologicalLifeResearch -> BrainAreaNPE -> BrainRegionNPE_NC_SPL_PG

This page covers biological details of component Caudal Precuneus. 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) -> Caudal Precuneus (NPE.NC.SPL.PG) (see Mind Maps)
Type: cortex
Brain area: Neocortical Brain - Polymodal Execution Area
Brodmann ID: 07
Role: cortex.generic
Function: Controlling spatially guided behavior with respect to visual and tactile information
Notes to function: caudal, 7A=PG+Opt
