Oct 24, 2018 - This paper has shown already a couple of years ago another cortico-cerebellar loops. They show here that the cerebellum is an active component of sensorimotor circuits and show the importance of sensorimotor cortico-cerebellar loops in the fine control of voluntary movements (whisk...

Oct 23, 2018 - In this paper, Chabrol and colleagues reported a similar results as Gao et al., Nature (2018). Silencing the activity in the a deep cerebellar nucleus (dentate nucleus) by photoactivation of Purkinje cells caused robust, short-latency suppression in the majority of the anterolatera...

Oct 23, 2018 - Persistent activity in the frontal cortex has been shown to anticipate specific movements. This type of ramping/persistent activity has been very well characterized in mice anterior motor cortex (ALM) by Svoboda's group. However, this kind of preparatory activity has been reported...
