brain topography

Brain topography refers to the way different areas of the brain are organized and mapped based on their functions. It shows which parts are responsible for specific tasks like movement, language, or sensation. This organization helps scientists and doctors understand how the brain works and identify areas affected by injuries or disorders. Essentially, brain topography provides a detailed "map" of brain activity, highlighting how different regions coordinate to support our thoughts, feelings, and actions.
