Role of the Basal Ganglia in Balance Control [PDF]
Neural Plasticity, 2005 In this review paper, we summarize the important contributions of the basal ganglia to the regulation of postural control. After a brief overview of basal ganglia circuitries, the emphasis is on clinical observations in patients with focal lesions in ...

The Basal Ganglia and Motor Control [PDF]
Neural Plasticity, 2003 This paper briefly reviews the functional anatomy of the basal ganglia and their relationships with the thalamocortical system. The basal ganglia, including the striatum, pallidum, subthalamic nucleus, and substantia nigra, are involved in a number of ...

Towards a systems-level view of cerebellar function::the interplay between cerebellum, basal ganglia and cortex [PDF]
Cerebellum, 2016 Contains fulltext : 170319.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Open Access)Despite increasing evidence suggesting the cerebellum works in concert with the cortex and basal ganglia, the nature of the reciprocal interactions between these three ...

Involvement of the cortico-basal ganglia-thalamocortical loop in developmental stuttering [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2019 Stuttering is a complex neurodevelopmental disorder that has to date eluded a clear explication of its pathophysiological bases. In this review, we utilize the Directions Into Velocities of Articulators (DIVA) neurocomputational modeling framework to ...

Integration of navigation and action selection functionalities in a computational model of cortico-basal ganglia-thalamo-cortical loops [PDF]
Adaptive Behavior 13 (2005) 115-130, 2006 This article describes a biomimetic control architecture affording an animat both action selection and navigation functionalities. It satisfies the survival constraint of an artificial metabolism and supports several complementary navigation strategies.

The Cortico-Basal Ganglia-Cerebellar Network: Past, Present and Future Perspectives
Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2019 Much of our present understanding of the function and operation of the basal ganglia rests on models of anatomical connectivity derived from tract-tracing approaches in rodents and primates.

Saccade learning with concurrent cortical and subcortical basal ganglia loops [PDF]
arXiv, 2013 The Basal Ganglia is a central structure involved in multiple cortical and subcortical loops. Some of these loops are believed to be responsible for saccade target selection. We study here how the very specific structural relationships of these saccadic loops can affect the ability of learning spatial and feature-based tasks.

The genetic landscape of basal ganglia and implications for common brain disorders. [PDF]
Nat CommunThe basal ganglia are subcortical brain structures involved in motor control, cognition, and emotion regulation. We conducted univariate and multivariate genome-wide association analyses (GWAS) to explore the genetic architecture of basal ganglia volumes
