Research News and Information

Definition of 'Cerebellum'

The part of brain that lies behind the BRAIN STEM in the posterior base of skull (CRANIAL FOSSA, POSTERIOR). It is also known as the "little brain" with convolutions similar to those of CEREBRAL CORTEX, inner white matter, and deep cerebellar nuclei. Its function is to coordinate voluntary movements, maintain balance, and learn motor skills.

Common names: Cerebellum; Cerebellums

In vivo role of a potassium channel-binding protein in regulating neuronal excitability and behavior.

19 Oct 2009 Molecular details of ion channel interactions with modulatory subunits have been investigated widely in transfected cells, but the physiological roles of ion channel modulatory protein complexes in native neurons remain largely unexplored. The ... Read more...


Dynamics of fast and slow inhibition from cerebellar golgi cells allow flexible control of synaptic integration.

22 Sep 2009 Throughout the brain, multiple interneuron types influence distinct aspects of synaptic processing. Interneuron diversity can thereby promote differential firing from neurons receiving common excitation. In contrast, Golgi cells are the sole ... Read more...


Automated analysis of cellular signals from large-scale calcium imaging data.

22 Sep 2009 Recent advances in fluorescence imaging permit studies of Ca(2+) dynamics in large numbers of cells, in anesthetized and awake behaving animals. However, unlike for electrophysiological signals, standardized algorithms for assigning optically ... Read more...
