---

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

• Top-down path to region: Cortex -> Anterior Lobe (NC.LOBE.ANT) -> Anterior Cingulate Area (NC.ACG) -> Anterior Cingulate Cortex (NC.AL.ACG) -> Dorsal Anterior Cingulate Area (NDM.NC.AL.DACG) (see Mind Maps)
• Type: cortex
• Brain area: Neocortical Brain - Decision Making Area
• Brodmann ID: 32
• Role: processor
• Function: Rational Thought Processes
• Notes to function: Anticipate and detect targets, indicate novelty, influence motor responses, encode reward values, and signal errors, motor, attentional and cognitive functions; BA32-rostral
