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

• Top-down path to region: Cerebral Cortex -> Temporal Lobe (NC.LOBE.TEMP) -> Superior Temporal Gyrus (NC.STG) -> Parainsular Area (NPE.NC.STG.PAI) (see Mind Maps)
• Type: cortex
• Quality: L0
• Brain area: Neocortical Brain - Unimodal Execution Area (NPE)
• Area circuit: Execution by Auditory Inputs (AES)
• Brodmann ID: 52
• Role: cortex.generic
• Function: Medial auditory stream
• Comments: between insula and 41, supplementary auditory cortex, monkey only; superior bank of superior temporal gyrus, posterior margin of insula
• Notes to function:
  • Major projects to PFC multi-modal associations, auditory to insula
