area 9L (9L)

The term area 9L refers to one of two components of area 9 in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex of the macaque. Defined on the basis of stain for neurofilament protein, it is the part of area 9 located on the dorsal aspect of the superior frontal gyrus. The other component is area 9M ( Petrides-2009 ).

Also known as: area 9L, area 9L of cortex, lateral part

Models Where It Appears
Topographic Model of Human Cerebral Cortex

The topographic model of human cerebral cortex is a closed partitive hierarchical model of cerebral cortical structure in the human. The cerebral cortex is segmented on the basis of internal structure, connectivity, and/or functions of cortical areas. It is designed to update the comprehensive early twentieth century parcellations of Brodmann and of von Economo and Koskinas and their successors. A work in progress, it integrates the most authoritative, comprehensive, and recent parcellations and nomenclatures from peer-reviewed publications and neuroanatomical texts. For an equivalent model in the rodent, Search BrainInfo for ' Functional CNS Model - Rat '. This segmentation of the human cerebral cortex, based on a combination of internal structure, connectivity, and function, complements the classical segmentation of the cerebral cortex into lobes, lobules, and gyri based on sulcal patterns: For the classical segmentation, see ' cerebral cortex ' and click 'Locus in Brain Hierarchy'.
