----

This page covers biological details of component Postrhinal Cortex.
Region is part of aHuman target integrated biological model.

  * *Top-down path to region*: Cerebral Cortex -> Parahippocampal Lobe (NC.LOBE.PH) -> [BrainCenterFMM_NC_PHP Posterior Parahippocampal Gyrus] (FMM.NC.PHP) -> [BrainRegionFMM_NC_PH_POR Postrhinal Cortex] (FMM.NC.PH.POR) (see [OverallMindMaps Mind Maps])
  * *Type*: cortex
  * *Quality*: L0
  * *Brain area*: [BrainAreaFMM Forebrain - Memory Management Area] (FMM)
  * *Area circuit*: Spatial Sensory Input to Hippocampus (MMASENSS)
  * *Role*: cortex.orienting
  * *Function*: Spatial declarative memory
  * *Notes to function*: 
   * do not have brodmann numbers, referred to as TF, TH
   *  postrhinal in rodents, parahippocampal in primates
