Inferior parietal lobe regions {inferior parietal lobe} (IPL) {caudal inferior parietal lobe} can have two main parts, LIP and 7a. Both LIP and area 7a receive input from thalamus medial pulvinar nucleus. Area LIP sends to superior colliculus and frontal eye fields to execute saccadic eye movements. Area 7a sends to polymodal cortex, limbic system, and prestriate cortex, to detect retinal locations and eye and head positions. Right or left Brodmann-area-7 damage causes hemi-neglect.
