= Brain Areas =

*Approach of defining areas*:
  * make area names unique to avoid misunderstanding
  * pay specific attention to vision, audition and proprioception
  * use visual and auditory senses to track both unimodal and polymodal paths
  * do not create thalamus area to avoid mixing unrelated paths, assign thalamus nuclei to other areas
  * do not create limbic area to avoid mixing unrelated functions, assign limbic components to other areas
  * take into account all subcortical nuclei
  * all areas mapped by Brodmann placed in cortical category
  * consider only single left hemisphere, placing unique right hemisphere components into corresponding cuircuits
