The cerebellum is instrumental in coordinating movement and refining motor control through intricate neuronal circuitry, with Purkinje cells serving as the central integrators of sensory inputs and ...

In a serendipitous discovery, neuroscientists at Stanford University recently stumbled on previously unknown cognitive functions of the cerebellum. In a series of complex mice experiments using ...

Researchers have developed a technique for selectively targeting and controlling the interneurons of the cerebellar molecular layer relying on a genetically engineered mouse model that exploits a ...

The cerebellum is primarily involved in movement, but a recent study found that the cerebellum is also involved in remembering emotional experiences. The study published in the Proceedings of the ...

Scientists have found in a new study that the human brain’s cerebellum, known for mainly regulating muscle control and body movement, also helps in remembering emotional experiences. Earlier studies ...

The cerebellum, a major part of the hindbrain in all vertebrates, is important for motor coordination, language acquisition, and regulating social and emotional behaviors. A study led by Dr. Roy ...

The brain’s cerebellum plays a key role in coordinating movement, balance, and cognition. Injury to the cerebellum can have a profound impact on basic motor skills, such as sitting, standing, and ...

Many people with multiple sclerosis struggle with balance and coordination, and this study uncovers a hidden reason why.

Cerebellum (Latin for "little brain") in red. Cerebellar means "relating to or located in the cerebellum." Source: Wikipedia/Life Sciences Database Prior to 1998, when Jeremy Schmahmann of Harvard ...

Medical experts use the term “cerebellar ataxia” when referring to conditions that lead to a lack of muscle control. Dysmetria is one form of cerebellar ataxia. Dysmetria occurs due to the improper ...

In 2014, a Chinese woman in her 20’s sought treatment for recurring problems with balance and dizziness, reports a case study published in the journal Brain. But when doctors looked at brain imaging ...
