  2. Paracentral lobule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paracentral_lobule

    In neuroanatomy, the paracentral lobule is on the medial surface of the cerebral hemisphere and is the continuation of the precentral and postcentral gyri.The paracentral lobule controls motor and sensory innervations of the contralateral lower extremity.

  3. Precuneus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precuneus

    Sensorimotor Anterior Region. This occurs around the margin of the cingulate sulcus ( blue in figure) and is connected with sensorimotor areas of the cerebral cortex such as the paracentral lobule, supplementary motor area, premotor cortex, somatosensory area (Brodmann area 2), parietal operculum and insula. fMRI Research upon humans finds a connection with the caudalmost part of ...

  4. Frontal eye fields - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frontal_eye_fields

    The frontal eye fields (FEF) are a region located in the frontal cortex, more specifically in Brodmann area 8 or BA8, [1] of the primate brain. In humans, it can be more accurately said to lie in a region around the intersection of the middle frontal gyrus with the precentral gyrus , consisting of a frontal and parietal portion. [ 2 ]

  5. Motor cortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_cortex

    It is located on the anterior paracentral lobule on the medial surface. 2. The premotor cortex is responsible for some aspects of motor control, possibly including the preparation for movement, the sensory guidance of movement, the spatial guidance of reaching, or the direct control of some movements with an emphasis on control of proximal and ...

  6. Cingulate sulcus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cingulate_sulcus

    The cingulate sulcus is a sulcus (brain fold) on the cingulate cortex in the medial wall of the cerebral cortex.The frontal and parietal lobes are separated from the cingulate gyrus by the cingulate sulcus.

  7. Medial eye fields - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medial_eye_fields

    Medial eye fields are areas in the frontal lobe of the primate brain that play a role in visually guided eye movement. [1] Most neuroscientists refer to this area as the supplementary eye fields . Eye fields are divided into two hemispheres regulated by s onic hedgehog ( Shh ) and Six3 .

  8. Brodmann area 8 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brodmann_area_8

    Brodmann area 8, or BA8, is part of the frontal cortex in the human brain.Situated just anterior to the premotor cortex (), it includes the frontal eye fields (so-named because they are believed to play an important role in the control of eye movements).

  9. Brodmann area 7 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brodmann_area_7

    Brodmann area 7 is part of the parietal cortex in the human brain.Situated posterior to the primary somatosensory cortex (Brodmann areas 3, 1 and 2), and superior to the occipital lobe, this region is believed to play a role in visuo-motor coordination (e.g., in reaching to grasp an object).
