The somatosensory cortex gets all sensory input from the body. Cells that are a piece of the brain or nerves that reach out into the body are called neurons. Every neuron takes its data to a particular place in the somatosensory cortex. Next, that piece of the somatosensory cortex gets the opportunity to take a shot at making sense of what the data implies. </span>
