  3. Brodmann area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brodmann_area

    In a number of cases, brain areas are organized into topographic maps, where adjoining bits of the cortex correspond to adjoining parts of the body, or of some more abstract entity. A simple example of this type of correspondence is the primary motor cortex, a strip of tissue running along the anterior edge of the central sulcus. Motor areas ...

  4. Anatomy of the cerebellum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anatomy_of_the_cerebellum

    The human cerebellum is located at the base of the brain, with the large mass of the cerebrum above it, and the portion of the brainstem called the pons in front of it. It is separated from the overlying cerebrum by a layer of tough dura mater called the cerebellar tentorium; all of its connections with other parts of the brain travel through the pons.

  5. Brodmann area 24 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brodmann_area_24

    In the guenon this area is referred to as area 24 of Brodmann-1905.It includes portions of the cingulate gyrus and the frontal lobe.The cortex is thin; it lacks the internal granular layer (IV) so that the densely distributed, plump pyramidal cells of sublayer 3b of the external pyramidal layer (III) merge with similar cells of the internal pyramidal layer (V); the multiform layer (VI) is very ...

  6. Cerebral cortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebral_cortex

    The cerebral cortex, also known as the cerebral mantle, [1] is the outer layer of neural tissue of the cerebrum of the brain in humans and other mammals.It is the largest site of neural integration in the central nervous system, [2] and plays a key role in attention, perception, awareness, thought, memory, language, and consciousness.

  7. Topographic map (neuroanatomy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Topographic_map_(neuroanatomy)

    The primary gustatory cortex (G) is located near the somatotopic region for the tongue (S1), in the insular cortex deep in the lateral fissure with the secondary taste areas in the opercula. [ 12 ] The peripheral taste system likely maintains a specific relationship between taste bud cells selectively responsive to one taste quality and the ...

  8. Cortical patterning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cortical_patterning

    Cortical patterning is a field of developmental neuroscience which aims to determine how the various functional areas of the cerebral cortex are generated, what size and shape they will be, and how their spatial pattern across the surface of the cortex is specified. Early brain lesion studies indicated that different parts of the cortex served ...

  9. Cortical map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cortical_map

    Cortical maps are collections (areas) of minicolumns in the brain cortex that have been identified as performing a specific information processing function (texture maps, color maps, contour maps, etc.).
