This pathway is responsible for fine touch, vibration, and conscious proprioception. It consists of two main bundles:The Fasciculus Gracilis: Carries information from the lower limbs and lower trunk (below T6).The Fasciculus Cuneatus: Carries information from the upper limbs and upper trunk (above T6).These fibers decussate (cross over) in the medulla, meaning the left side of the brain processes sensations from the right side of the body.

WinEpi 2.0 has been designed as a cooperative platform in order to provide epidemiological tools to scientific and academic community. For this reason it is important to strengthen the self-learning ability including with step-by-step guidelines and solved examples. Functions and examples will be available in different languages and everybody could submit proposal to implement new formulae, to suggest examples and to collaborate as translators.
