The Primary Somatosensory Cortex. Parts of the cerebral cortex in the parietal lobe are involved with processing information related to touch. One such area is the primary somatosensory cortex which is located behind the central sulcus.Neurons in the primary somatosensory are activated when the skin is touched.However, the body is NOT represented in the cortex in proportion to the amount of skin. A map of the human somatosensory cortex was drawn by Dr. Wilder Penfield, a neurosurgeon, in the 1950s.eurons in the primary somatosensory are activated when the skin is touched.

Parietal Lobe, Left - Damage to this area may disrupt a personâs ability to understand spoken and/or written language. The parietal lobes contain the primary sensory cortex which controls sensation (touch, pressure). Behind the primary sensory cortex is a large association area that controls fine sensation (judgment of texture, weight, size, and shape). Temporal Lobe: There are two temporal lobes, one on each side of the brain located at about the level of the ears. These lobes allow a person to tell one smell from another and one sound from another. They also help in sorting. new information and are believed to be responsible for short-term memory.
