The work of Fritsch and Hitzig supported the localization of some functions in the brain. Specifically, they found that electrical stimulation of different areas of the cerebral cortex could produce movements in specific parts of the body, suggesting that motor function is localized to specific regions of the brain. This supported the ideas of other researchers like Flourens and Broca who had also found evidence for localization of function in the brain.
