This page covers biological details of component Inferotemporal Cortex. Region is part of aHuman target integrated biological model.
- Top-down path to region: Cortex -> Temporal Lobe (NC.LOBE.TEMP) -> Inferotemporal Area (NSA.NC.IT) -> Inferotemporal Cortex (NSA.NC.IT.TE) (see Mind Maps)
- Type: cortex
- Brain area: Neocortical Brain - Sensory Aggregation Area
- Brodmann ID: 20
- Role: processor
- Function: Represent different views of objects
- Notes to function: Face recognition, high level visual processing
