Caudal Precuneus

@@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*: 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*: processor
• *Function*: Controlling spatially guided behavior with respect to visual and tactile information
• *Notes to function*: caudal, 7A=PG+Opt
