The cerebellum is a key player in many brain functions and a major topic of neuroscience
research. However, the cerebellar nuclei (CN), the main output structures of the cerebellum …

The cerebellum represents a brain compartment that first appeared in gnathostomes (jawed
vertebrates). Besides the addition of cell numbers, its development, cytoarchitecture …

The pretectum is a complex region of the caudal diencephalon which in adult zebrafish
comprises both retinorecipient (parvocellular superficial, central, intercalated …

Although all vertebrate cerebella contain granule cells, Purkinje cells, and efferent neurons,
the cellular arrangement and neural circuitry are highly diverse. In amniotes, cerebellar …

The cerebellum is important for motor control, cognition, and language processing. Afferent
and efferent fibers are major components of cerebellar circuitry and impairment of these …

Doublecortin (DCX) is a microtubule-associated protein that has been considered a marker
for neuronal precursors and young migrating neurons during the development of the central …

The dorsal part of the developing telencephalon is one of the brain areas that has suffered
most drastic changes throughout vertebrate evolution. Its evolutionary increase in complexity …

Neurogenesis is a multistep process by which progenitor cells become terminally
differentiated neurons. Adult neurogenesis has gathered increasing interest with the aim of …

The cerebellum is present in all extant gnathostomes or jawed vertebrates, of which
cartilaginous fishes represent the most ancient radiation. Since the isthmic organizer …
