The role of the cerebellum in motor control and learning has been largely inferred from the
effects of cerebellar damage. Recent work shows that cerebellar damage produces greater …

Making predictions and validating the predictions against actual sensory information is
thought to be one of the most fundamental functions of the nervous system. A growing body …

While classical views of cerebellar learning have suggested that this structure predominantly
operates according to an error-based supervised learning rule to refine movements …

Over the past 30 years, cumulative evidence has indicated that cerebellar function extends
beyond sensorimotor control. This view has emerged from studies of neuroanatomy …

In this article, we review a broad range of studies of cerebellar function and dysfunction and
interpret them within the framework that the cerebellum acts as part of a mechanism of …

The cerebellum is essential for error-driven motor learning and is strongly implicated in
detecting and correcting for motor errors. Therefore, elucidating how motor errors are …

When we use a novel tool, the motor commands may not produce the expected outcome. In
healthy individuals, with practice the brain learns to alter the motor commands. This change …

Theories of cerebellar function have largely involved three ideas: movement coordination,
motor learning or timing. New evidence indicates these distinctions are not particularly …

There is considerable evidence that the cerebellum has a vital role in motor learning by
constructing an estimate of the sensory consequences of movement. Theory suggests that …
