Preferred term

feedback pathways  

Definition

  • The brain's pattern of connectivity involves two-way pathways: feedforward pathways and feedback pathways. For instance, if area A sends signals to area B (feedforward pathway), then area B almost invariably sends signals back to area A (feedback pathway).
