This page covers biological details of component Medial Entorhinal Cortex. Region is part of aHuman target integrated biological model.
- Top-down path to region: Cerebral Cortex -> Parahippocampal Lobe (NC.LOBE.PH) -> Anterior Parahippocampal Gyrus (FMM.NC.PHA) -> Rhinal Cortex (NC.PHA.RH) -> Entorhinal Cortex (FMM.NC.PH.ET) -> Medial Entorhinal Cortex (FMM.NC.PH.MEC) (see Mind Maps)
- Type: cortex
- Quality: L0
- Brain area: Forebrain - Memory Management Area (FMM)
- Area circuit: Spatial Sensory Input to Hippocampus (MMASENSS)
- Brodmann ID: 28
- Role: processor.memory.complex
- Function: Memory consolidation, basic, view independent position
- Notes to function:
- spatial input to HC
- grid cells
- path integration computations based on a global frame of reference, primarily using internally generated, self-motion cues and external input about environmental boundaries and scenes
- provides hippocampus with coordinate system that underlies spatial context of experience
