(David Duprey / AP) A team of researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center is aiming to find treatments for diseases of the cerebellum, a fist-sized structure in the back of the brain that helps ...

This is the inability to do rapid alternating movement that we check when someone has a lesion in the cerebellum." Dysdiadochokinesia (DDK) is the difficulty in executing quick, coordinated muscle ...

The D-PSCAN method is based on the double microprism assembly carefully and systematically implanted between the cerebellum and brainstem, preserving cerebellar function while providing a broad ...

Since the 1980s, however, scientists have rethought the cerebellum’s job as purely a movement coordinator. This tightly folded, 3-foot-long structure when unwound has now been linked to ...

Early treatment with Ocrevus (ocrelizumab) may help protect the cerebellum, a region of the brain that plays a key role in motor coordination, cognitive function, and emotional regulation ...

“What did I just get myself into?” The pup couldn’t even stand, let alone walk. A specialist diagnosed her with cerebellar hypoplasia—an underdeveloped cerebellum affecting balance and coordination.

The cerebellum is a complex brain structure that subserves sensori-motor control functions but also probably plays a key role in cognition. The interest of this initiative is to reconnect different ...

The functions of the cerebellum are traditionally assumed to be limited to the regulation of motor coordination, balance, and motor speech. In recent decades, however, the results of neuroanatomical, ...

chuv.hospvd.ch To assess the clinical, topographical, and aetiological features of multiple cerebellar infarcts,18 patients (16.5% of patients with cerebellar infarction) were collected from a ...

Objective: To investigate cerebellar function in autism by measuring visually guided saccades. Methods: A visually guided saccade task was performed by 46 high-functioning individuals with autism with ...

THE nature of the transformation of patterns of excitation within the cerebellar cortex may be explained by the following argument, based mainly on histological evidence and on some simple ...
