This page covers biological details of component Subcuneiform Nucleus. Region is part of aHuman target integrated biological model.

• Top-down path to region: Midbrain Mesencephalon -> Mesencephalic Reticular Formation (MM.RF) -> Mesencephalic Reticular Formation, Medial Column (MM.RF.MED) -> Subcuneiform Nucleus (LRC.MM.SCNF) (see Mind Maps)
• Type: nucleus
• Quality: L0
• Brain area: Lower Brain - Motor Reflex Area (LRC)
• Area circuit: Gait and Posture Control (LGP)
• Role: processor.automatic
• Function: Initiation of gait, feedback control of saccade accuracy
• Notes to function:
  • contributes to generation of estimate of target or eye position coded in craniotopic coordinates
