While caring for these unfortunate individuals, Holmes observed that damage to a small structure at the base of the brain called the cerebellum, which means “little brain” in Latin, primarily led to ...
In a second series of studies we showed that ventricular zone-derived cells expressing the stem cell marker Nestin in the cerebellar cortex have the ability to change their normal fate (glia) and ...
Toward the bottom of the brain are more primitive structures, including the cerebellum and brain stem ... physical impact and helps maintain normal function. The brain and spinal cord together ...
The lab uses sophisticated mouse genetics approaches to probe how cell-cell communication and cell intrinsic genetic programs determine the way by which normal cerebellar circuitry is established and ...
These processes are studied in normal individuals (Purdue work) and in individuals with a compromised cerebellum (UC Berkeley collaboration). Zelaznik HN (2015). On the robustness of Fitts’ law.
