The compartmentalization of the cerebellum into modules is often used to discuss its
function. What, exactly, can be considered a module, how do they operate, can they be …

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 …

An unusual feature of the cerebellar cortex is that its output neurons, Purkinje cells, release
GABA (γ-aminobutyric acid). Their high intrinsic firing rates (50 Hz) and extensive …

The prevailing model of cerebellar learning states that climbing fibers (CFs) are both driven
by, and serve to correct, erroneous motor output. However, this model is grounded largely in …

Closed-loop circuitries between cortical and subcortical regions can facilitate precision of
output patterns, but the role of such networks in the cerebellum remains to be elucidated …

The ability of the brain to accurately control a movement depends on the cerebellum. Yet,
how the cerebellar neurons encode information relevant for this control remains poorly …

While research on the cerebellar cortex is crystallizing our understanding of its function in
learning behavior, many questions surrounding its downstream targets remain. Here, we …

The cerebellum refines the accuracy and timing of motor performance. How it encodes
information to perform these functions is a major topic of interest. We performed whole cell …

The manual muscle test (MMT) is a flexible diagnostic tool, which is used in many
disciplines, applied in several ways. The main problem is the subjectivity of the test. The …

The cerebellum regulates complex movements and is also implicated in cognitive tasks, and
cerebellar dysfunction is consequently associated not only with movement disorders, but …
