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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

The cerebellum (Latin for "little brain") accounts for only about 10 percent of whole-brain volume but houses roughly 75 percent of the brain's total neurons. Cerebellar is the sister word to cerebral ...

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 is essential for sensorimotor control but also contributes to higher cognitive functions including social behaviors. Researchers uncovered how dopamine in the cerebellum modulates ...

Research at the University of Calgary's Hotchkiss Brain Institute (HBI) has demonstrated the novel expression of an ion channel in Purkinje cells – specialized neurons in the cerebellum, the area of ...

A recent study provides new evidence on the neural basis of shyness, suggesting a link between this personality trait and ...
