The cerebellum is a major structure of your hindbrain responsible for a wide range of functions, including coordinating your movements. It is important in processing some types of memory.

Scientists have mapped the molecular structure of glutamate receptors in the cerebellum for the first time using cryo-electron microscopy.

If you regularly experience headaches, dizziness, balance problems and blurred vision, our Neanderthal cousins could be to ...

The key obstacle is that the cortex covering the cerebellum comprises extremely tightly folded layers of tissue and requires high-resolution imaging to fully visualize and study its anatomy. Now, ...

The cerebrum, especially the cerebral cortex, has long been thought to be the important part of our brain. However, the ...

The cerebellum is the part that handles many aspects of movement. This article provides a brief summary of the anatomy, purpose, and disorders of the cerebellum, as well as offering tips on ...

The cerebellum is a fist-size structure tucked below the cerebral cortex—the part of the brain that we typically attribute to higher-order cognitive processes, including consciousness, language, and ...

By studying the skilled movements of marmoset tongues, researchers have discovered that Purkinje cells (P-cells) in a brain region called the cerebellum signal to stop protrusion as the tongue ...

A major study has found that psychopaths have markedly different brain structures to the rest of the population, offering ...

Researchers have compared the structure of the cerebellum and cerebrum in the brains of 56 mammals, providing insights into the evolution and mechanisms of brain folding. Scientists from the have ...
