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.

“ #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.”

Cerebellar flatmaps now in #ggsegverse!

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

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

🧠 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.

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: https://www.fchampalimaud.org/news/zombie-neurons-shed-light-how-brain-learns

🧠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.

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...

"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."
