In this report, we analyze the relationship between embodied cognition and current theories
of the cerebellum, particularly the Dysmetria of Thought theory and the concept of the …

Distinct regions of the cerebellum connect to separate regions of the cerebral cortex forming
a complex topography. Although cerebellar organization has been examined in group …

The cerebellum is a subcortical brain structure that is essential for learning and controlling
movement. Recent work shows that the cerebellum also plays a role in certain perceptual …

The traditional view on the core functions of the cerebellum consists of the regulation of
motor coordination, balance and motor speech. However, during the past decades results …

The adult mammalian cerebellar cortex is generally assumed to have a uniform
cytoarchitecture. Differences in cerebellar function are thought to arise primarily through …

Humans have remarkable abilities in the dexterous use of tools to extend their physical
capabilities. Although previous neuropsychological and functional neuroimaging studies …

Starting with the work of Cajal more than 100 years ago, neuroscience has sought to
understand how the cells of the brain give rise to cognitive functions. How far has …

The cerebellar cortex is an important system for relating neural circuits and learning. Its
promise reflects the longstanding idea that it contains simple, repeated circuit modules with …

Accumulating evidence points to a critical role for the human cerebellum in both motor and
nonmotor behaviors. A core tenet of this new understanding of cerebellar function is the …

So began, somewhat modestly, the article that in 1958 introduced the cerebellum to the
readers of Scientific American. Written by Ray S. Snider of Northwestern University, the …
