Inferior frontal junction
Topic: Medicine
From Handwiki - Reading time: 1 minShort description: Area of the cerebral cortex
The inferior frontal junction area (IFJ) is an area of the brain located at the junction of the inferior frontal sulcus and the inferior precentral sulcus.[1] It is involved in working memory and attention functions and has been shown as an important control region orchestrating neural activity elsewhere in the brain.[2][3]
