The cortical area called<unk> <unk>  plays an important role in the control of visual attention and<unk>  movements. Electrical stimulation in the<unk>  elicits saccadic<unk>  movements. The<unk>  have a topographic structure and represents saccade targets in retinotopic coordinates. The<unk> is reported to be activated during the initiation of<unk>  movements, such as voluntary saccades and pursuit<unk>  movements. There is also evidence that it plays a role in purely sensory processing and that it belongs to a “fast brain” system through a superior colliculus – medial dorsal nucleus –<unk>  ascending pathway. In humans, its earliest activations in regard to visual stimuli occur at 45 ms with activations related to changes in visual stimuli within 45–60 ms (these are comparable with response times in the primary visual cortex). This fast brain pathway also provides auditory input at even shorter times starting at 24 ms and being affected by auditory characteristics at 30–60 ms. The<unk>  constitutes together with the supplementary<unk>  fields (SEF), the intraparietal sulcus (IPS) and the superior colliculus (SC) one of the most important brain areas involved in the generation and control of<unk>  movements, particularly in the direction contralateral to the<unk> ' location. In addition,<unk>  has an important role in the covert allocation of spatial attention through its reciprocal connectivity with visual cortex.
