What Does The Brain Do? (Lobes)
This What Does the Brain Do? (Lobes) tool explains what different parts of the human brain are responsible for. Understanding how your brain works can give some helpful context for the other things you will learn and do in your therapy.
Overview
The human brain, as the central organ of the body's nervous system, orchestrates all cognitive and physical activities. This illustrated handout provides brief summary of the cerebral cortex, which comprises four main lobes - frontal, parietal, occipital, and temporal - each playing an important role in processes such as movement, perception, language, and memory.
