People often worry about their brains aging, focusing only on the cerebrum related to memory and dementia. However, the ...

A large MRI study of more than 47,000 adults found that cerebellar aging is uneven, with posterior association regions and some motor-related areas showing steeper age-related changes. Larger ...

Recent scientific and technological advances have led to the development of increasingly sophisticated tools to conduct neuroscience research. These new methods are helping neuroscientists to better ...

Volumes of cerebellar posterior lobes have been associated with cognitive skills, such as language functioning. Children born very preterm (VPT) often have language problems. However, only total ...

The cerebellum is primarily involved in movement, but a recent study found that the cerebellum is also involved in remembering emotional experiences. The study published in the Proceedings of the ...

Researchers at Kanazawa University have identified a previously unrecognized mechanism by which structural changes in the ...

A new study upends movement disorder research, proving Purkinje cells are a poor biomarker for deep cerebellar nuclei.

The cerebellum (Latin for "little brain") is tucked below the cerebrum (Latin for "big brain"). Cerebellar and cerebral are sister words; the former means "relating to the cerebellum," and the latter ...

The cerebellum, long recognised for its role in motor coordination, is increasingly implicated in the cognitive and affective disturbances of schizophrenia. Rather than operating in isolation, the ...

Researchers at Kanazawa University have identified a previously unrecognized mechanism by which structural changes in the ...

The cerebellum (Latin for "little brain") accounts for only about 10 percent of whole-brain volume but houses roughly 75 percent of the brain's total neurons. Cerebellar is the sister word to cerebral ...
