Neuropathology and Animal Models of Autism: Genetic and Environmental Factors

Figure 2

The cerebellum projects to motor and nonmotor regions in the monkey brain. Targets of cerebellar output, indicated in red, are areas of the cerebral cortex that have motor-related functions. Blue labels indicate cortical areas that are the nonmotor targets of cerebellar output. The areas are indicated on the lateral aspect of the Cebus monkey brain. The numbers 9 and 46 refer to cytoarchitectonic areas of the prefrontal cortex. AS: arcuate sulcus; FEF: frontal eye field; LS: lateral sulcus; M1: areas of the primary motor cortex; PMd: dorsal premotor area; PMv: ventral premotor area; PrePMd: predorsal premotor area; ST: superior temporal sulcus.
