The External Control Network Left is a network of regions including the left frontal-parietal brain areas, which are generally involved in tasks that rely on paying attention, as well as control processes and working memory. The ECNL is primarily involved in cognitive and language paradigms.

The External Control Network Right is a network of regions including the right hemisphere frontal-parietal areas, which are generally involved in tasks relying on executive functions, such as control processes and working memory. The ECNR relates to perceptual, somesthetic (touch and position) and nociceptive (pain) processing.

The Default Mode Network is a left-right symmetrical network. It consists of regions most commonly active when a person is not focused on the outside world and the brain is at wakeful rest, such as during daydreaming, mind-wandering and envisioning past or future events. The network activates “by default” when a person is not involved in a task. The DMN has been shown to be negatively correlated with other networks in the brain, such that when the DMN is active, the other networks are inactive, and vice versa.

The Salience Network is a left-right symmetrical network encompassing the anterior insula and dorsal anterior cingulate cortex. It is involved in detecting and filtering emotionally important and relevant stimuli as well as alerting.

The Auditory Network is symmetrically represented in both brain hemispheres (a left-right symmetrical network). It consists of regions involved in hearing. It encompasses the primary auditory cortex responsible for the sensation of basic characteristics of sound such as pitch and rhythm, and the secondary auditory cortex, important for speech perception.

The Hippocampal Network is left-right symmetrical network that encompasses the hippocampus and amygdala, parts of the limbic system. It plays important roles in the consolidation of information from short-term memory to long-term memory, and in spatial memory that enables navigation.

The Sensorimotor Network is a left-right symmetrical network encompassing the somatosensory (post-central gyrus) and motor (pre-central gyrus) areas that are activated during motor tasks.

The Language Network consists of regions encompassing the Broca and Wernicke areas and is responsible for speech and language comprehension.

The Visual Medial Network is left-right symmetrical network encompassing medial regions important in simple visual stimuli (e.g. a flickering checkerboard).

The Visual Lateral Network is left-right symmetrical network encompassing the middle temporal visual association area and is most important in processing complex (emotional) stimuli. It also is involved in spatial navigation.

The Visual Occipital Network is a left-right symmetrical network of occipital regions that is important in processing higher-order visual stimuli (e.g. orthography).
