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

  * *Top-down path to region*: Cerebral Cortex -> Anterior Lobe (NC.LOBE.ANT) -> [BrainCenterNMA_NC_SMC Supplementary Motor Cortex] (NMA.NC.SMC) -> [BrainRegionNMA_NC_SMC_F3 Supplementary Motor Area] (NMA.NC.SMC.F3) (see [OverallMindMaps Mind Maps])
  * *Type*: cortex
  * *Quality*: L0
  * *Brain area*: [BrainAreaNMA Neocortical Brain - Motor Aggregation Area] (NMA)
  * *Area circuit*: Complex Motor (SEQ)
  * *Brodmann ID*: 06
  * *Role*: cortex.generic
  * *Function*: Movement execution; Numerical and verbal mental-operation tasks
  * *Notes to function*: 
   * from TH/VLo from from putamen
   *  F1/F2/F4/24d - strong
   *  F6/F7/F5/24c - modest
   *  no input from the prefrontal lobe
