“…Inhibitory projections from Purkinje cortical neurons modulate the activity of the interpositus, effectively manipulating the timing of the CR (Mamounas et al, 1987;Bao et al, 2002). Evidence suggests that one locus of CR timing modification is the anterior regions of cerebellar cortex (Green and Steinmetz, 2005), an area wherein lesions disrupt CR onset and peak latencies (McCormick and Thompson, 1984b;Logan, 1991;Perrett et al, 1993;Garcia et al, 1999) and, perhaps, CR acquisition (Lavond and Steinmetz, 1989;Garcia et al, 1999). Other studies have implicated the posterior cerebellar cortex in CR acquisition, but with a limited role in the timing of the CR (e.g., Attwell, Rahman, and Yeo, 2001).…”
