The region of cortex lying between primary visual and primary\/ somatosensory cortex, and involved in complex aspects of navigation and visual recognition. Within this part of the cortex is the parietal lobe, an area comprising about a fifth of the cerebral cotex, which can be divided into three segments: the postcentral gyrus, the inferior parietal lobe, and the superior parietal lobe. <\/p>\n
