This page covers biological details of component Pre-Supplementary Motor Area. Region is part of aHuman target integrated biological model.

• Top-down path to region: Cerebral Cortex -> Anterior Lobe (NC.LOBE.ANT) -> Supplementary Motor Cortex (NMA.NC.SMC) -> Pre-Supplementary Motor Area (NMA.NC.SMC.F6) (see Mind Maps)
• Type: cortex
• Brain area: Neocortical Brain - Motor Aggregation Area
• Brodmann ID: 06
• Role: processor
• Function: High level motor functions; Numerical and verbal mental-operation tasks
• Notes to function: from TH/VLpc, MD from caudate, CR; F5/24c/46; no connections with F1
