aivoalueisiin

Aivoalueisiin is Finnish for “to brain regions” and functions as the illative plural form of aivoalue, meaning brain region. In grammar, the illative case marks direction toward a place or domain, so aivoalueisiin denotes movement toward, focus on, or reference to multiple brain regions. The singular form is aivoalueeseen.

In scientific and academic Finnish, aivoalueisiin is commonly used when describing analyses, targets, or discussions that pertain to specific brain areas rather than the brain as a whole. It appears in contexts such as neuroanatomy, functional imaging, and studies of neural circuits. Phrases like keskittyä aivoalueisiin (focus on brain regions) or kohdistua aivoalueisiin (target brain regions) illustrate typical usage.

The term is often encountered alongside related concepts such as aivoalueet (brain regions in the plural nominative), aivokuori (cerebral cortex), and aivolohko (brain lobe). In imaging and localization work, references to aivoalueisiin help specify the parcellation or atlas being used, for example when reporting results by region of interest. Writers should clarify which regions or parcellation scheme is intended, as Finnish terminology relies on context to determine exact targets or boundaries.

Overall, aivoalueisiin is a standard linguistic tool in Finnish neuroscience for describing analyses, effects, or references that are localized to specific brain regions.
