Influence of cerebellar extirpation on the development of specialized movements in rabbits

Extirpation of the cerebellum from rabbits 4 to 7 days old led to marked changes in the development of the behavioural reflexes (cleaning, scratching, licking, and shaking). Evidently, in the absence of the cerebellum the cerebral cortex is incapable of adequate reorganization of relations in the developing nervous system.
