This page covers biological details of component Anterior Intraparietal Sulcus. Region is part of aHuman target integrated biological model.

• Top-down path to region: Cortex -> Parietal Lobe (NC.LOBE.PAR) -> Intraparietal Sulcus (NSA.NC.IPS) -> Anterior Intraparietal Sulcus (NSA.NC.IPS.AIP) (see Mind Maps)
• Type: cortex
• Brain area: Neocortical Brain - Sensory Aggregation Area
• Brodmann ID: 39
• Role: processor
• Function: Represent shape, size, and orientation of objects to be grasped
• Notes to function: Both to viewed and remembered stimuli, grasping and manipulating objects through motor and visual inputs
