Cerebellar Closed-Loops

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Essentials of Cerebellum and Cerebellar Disorders

Abstract

Data from histological tracing studies in non-human primate strongly support the view that the cerebellar system is organized into distinct, motor and non-motor, parallel closed-loop circuits interconnecting the cerebellum and the cerebral cortex. Functional imaging data in human seem to confirm this specific network organization in human, and to extend the role of the cerebellum from motor control to regulation of cognition and emotion.
