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

  * *Top-down path to region*: Cerebral Cortex -> Anterior Lobe (NC.LOBE.ANT) -> Prefrontal Cortex (NC.AL.PFC) -> [BrainCenterNC_AL_OMPFC Orbitomedial Prefrontal Cortex] (NC.AL.OMPFC) -> Medial Prefrontal Cortex (NC.AL.MPFC) -> [BrainRegionNDM_NC_AL_DMPFC Dorsomedial Prefrontal Cortex] (NDM.NC.AL.DMPFC) (see [OverallMindMaps Mind Maps])
  * *Type*: cortex
  * *Quality*: L0
  * *Brain area*: [BrainAreaNDM Neocortical Brain - Decision Making Area] (NDM)
  * *Area circuit*: Motivatory Associations (MAS)
  * *Brodmann ID*: 09
  * *Role*: cortex.generic
  * *Function*: Ongoing Extroverted Attention to Select Appropriate Response
  * *Notes to function*: 
   * upper MPFC, primary connections to the cingulate and the motor and premotor cortices
