area IP2
Acronym: IP2
The term area IP2 refers to the the most rostral of three areas, IP0, IP1, and IP2, on the dorsal margin of inferior parietal cortex, a region that is much expanded in humans relative to macaques and chimpanzees. Located in the lateral bank of the posterior intraparietal sulcus, it is bounded dorsally by area AIP and area LIPd, ventrally by area PFm, caudally by area IP1 and rostrally by area PF. Defined by multiple criteria, it is fMRI-activated or deactivated in MOTOR CUE and FACES tasks ( Glasser-2016 )
