Abstract:The majority of neurons in the mammalian brain reside within the cerebellum. The cerebellum has several functions, including motor control, sensory processing and cognition. Despite its anatomical and functional significance, the evolutionary origins of the cerebellum are not well understood. There are several sensory nuclei present across vertebrate phylogeny collectively termed cerebellum-like structures due to a shared anatomy and physiology with the cerebellum. Common structure and function may arise due t… Show more
