premotor cortex

The premotor cortex is a part of the brain located in the frontal lobe, just in front of the primary motor cortex. It plays a key role in planning and coordinating voluntary movements, especially those that involve hand-eye coordination and complex sequences. It helps prepare the body to move, integrates sensory information, and works with other brain regions to execute smooth, purposeful actions. Essentially, it acts as a planning center that organizes movements before they are carried out by the primary motor cortex.
