Despite fine tuning voluntary movement as the most prominently studied function of the
cerebellum, early human studies suggested cerebellar involvement emotion regulation …

Accumulating evidence indicates that the cerebellum is critically involved in modulating non-
motor behaviors, including cognition and emotional processing. Both imaging and lesion …

12 The pivotal role of the periaqueductal grey (PAG) in fear learning is reinforced by the
identification of 13 neurons in rat ventral (vPAG) that encode fear memory through signalling …

Fear learning is mediated by a large network of brain structures and the understanding of
their roles and interactions is constantly progressing. There is a multitude of anatomical and …

Fear conditioning is a form of associative learning that is known to involve different brain
areas, notably the amygdala, the prefrontal cortex and the periaqueductal grey (PAG). Here …

The amygdala and cerebellum are both evolutionary preserved brain structures containing
cortical as well as subcortical properties. For decades, the amygdala has been considered …

The pivotal role of the periaqueductal grey (PAG) in fear learning is reinforced by the
identification of neurons in male rat ventrolateral PAG (vlPAG) that encode fear memory …

The role of the cerebellum in emotional control has gained increasing interest, with studies
showing it is involved in fear learning and memory in both humans and rodents. This review …

Fear is an important emotion for survival, and the cerebellum has been found to contribute
not only to innate affective and defensive behavior, but also to learned fear responses …

Objectives Various regions of the midbrain and cerebrum are known to play an important
role in fear behaviour. This talk will present evidence that the cerebellum should also be …
