  1. Does visual motion contribute to self-motion encoding in the #cerebellum? This study shows that visual roll motion does not alter cerebellar cell activity or #vestibular coding, indicating that visual influences likely emerge downstream.

  3. “ #Mescaline has been used in spiritual and ceremonial practices for thousands of years. It produces its effects partly by activating some of the same receptors that normally respond to #serotonin, a chemical messenger that helps brain cells communicate and plays a role in mood, sleep, and sensory perception.

    By engaging these receptors, mescaline can change how people perceive colors, shapes, time, their surroundings, and even themselves.

    The #cerebellum has traditionally been associated with coordinating movement and balance. But growing evidence suggests it is also involved in #attention, emotion, memory, and the processing of sensory information.”

  4. Cerebellar flatmaps now in !

    We have now shipped across the ggsegverse the possibility to visualise the cerebellum parcellations also, based on the SUIT flatmap from the Diedriksen lab.

  5. Why is the #cerebellum (known for coordinating motor functions) also engaged in #cognition? @DiedrichsenJorn & Samuel McDougle investigate the problems that have made it so difficult to answer this question and outline strategies to make progress. #Neuroscience

  6. 🧠 New preprint by Greenstreet, Geerts, Gallego, and Clopath on #MotorLearning across #cortex, #cerebellum, and #BasalGanglia.

    Key idea: supervised learning builds a low-dimensional action embedding, and #ReinforcementLearning operates directly in this structured space. This explains generalization, interference, and striatal similarity patterns as geometric consequences, not add-ons.

  7. The cerebellum is known to control limb movements; does it also control the tongue? This study reveals how the #cerebellum controls the #tongue in marmosets, highlighting the role of #PurkinjeCells in terminating tongue movement at the target @PLOSBiology plos.io/4lCK9Wj

  9. How's Friday going folks? I've been working on standardising the Cell model from Zang et al 2018 to . Exported the morphology already, on to the converting the individual Ion channels next.

    You can use the converted bits from here: github.com/sanjayankur31/ZangE

  10. "Climbing fibers provide essential instructive signals for associative learning", Silva et al. 2024 from @megancarey 's lab.

    nature.com/articles/s41593-024

    An interesting and unexpected result: "Moderate ChR2 [channelrhodopsin] expression is associated with subtle reductions in CF [climbing fibre] signaling and abolishes learning to a sensory US [unconditioned stimulus]."

    This lead to the "zombie neurons" concept, explained also in the institutional press release: fchampalimaud.org/news/zombie-

  13. A role for the cerebellum in motor-triggered alleviation of anxiety: Neuron

    cell.com/neuron/fulltext/S0896

    " ... Our findings reveal a cerebello-limbic pathway that may contribute to motor-triggered alleviation of anxiety and that may be optimally exploited during challenging physical exercise"

  14. 🧠Big news, little brain 🧠
    I’m excited to share our preprint introducing our hierarchical cerebellar atlas!🎉

    We fused many fMRI datasets into a comprehensive map of the cerebellum - and created a new resource for localizing and interpreting data.

  15. This substack post about how our understanding of the #cerebellum has been so wrong for so long (or at least those of us not paying attention)

    I'm probably making a cardinal mistake, but my takeaway simplified understanding is that the cerebrum is more distributed/ slow learning, while the cerebellum is for super fast execution of heuristics it has learned. Kind of like CPU vs GPU?

    Did you know the cerebellum has 80% of all neurons in the brain? Or that it essentially maps almost every part of the cerebrum, even down to language being localized on the left? Get out of here...

  16. "Synaptic mechanisms for associative learning in the cerebellar nuclei" by Broersen et al. 2023 nature.com/articles/s41467-023

    "optogenetic stimulation of mossy fiber afferents to the anterior interposed nucleus (AIP) can substitute for a conditioned stimulus and is sufficient to elicit conditioned responses (CRs) that are adaptively well-timed."
