The rodent whisker system is widely used as a model system for investigating sensorimotor
integration, neural mechanisms of complex cognitive tasks, neural development, and robotics…

The brain generates many rhythmic activities, and the olivo-cerebellar system is not an
exception. In recent years, the cerebellum has revealed activities ranging from low frequency to …

Neurons are generally considered to communicate information by increasing or decreasing
their firing rate. However, in principle, they could in addition convey messages by using …

Cerebellar long-term depression (LTD) is a model system for neuronal information storage
that has an absolute requirement for activation of protein kinase C (PKC). It has been claimed …

L1 is a neural cell adhesion molecule mainly involved in axon guidance and neuronal
migration during brain development. Mutations in the human L1 gene give rise to a complex …

Three decades of electrophysiological research on cerebellar cortical activity underlying
Pavlovian conditioning have expanded our understanding of motor learning in the brain. …

Synaptic and intrinsic processing in Purkinje cells, interneurons and granule cells of the
cerebellar cortex have been shown to underlie various relatively simple, single-joint, reflex types …

Over the past decade the advent of mouse transgenics has generated new perspectives on
the study of cerebellar molecular mechanisms that are essential for eyeblink conditioning. …

The cerebellar cortex is crucial for sensorimotor integration. Sensorimotor inputs converge
on cerebellar Purkinje cells via two afferent pathways: the climbing fibre pathway triggering …

Lack of fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP) causes Fragile X Syndrome, the most
common form of inherited mental retardation. FMRP is an RNA-binding protein and is a …
