What Does PMC Stand For?

PMC stands for Primary Motor Cortex

The Primary Motor Cortex (PMC) is a critical region located in the frontal lobe of the brain, primarily responsible for the planning, control, and execution of voluntary movements. It plays a key role in sending signals to the muscles, facilitating coordinated movement and fine motor skills. The PMC is organized in a somatotopic manner, meaning specific areas correspond to different body parts, reflecting the complexity and precision required for motor tasks.
