Low-intensity ultrasound directly modulates neural activity of the cerebellar cortex
Brain Stimulation, 2023 Background: Low-intensity ultrasound is a noninvasive neuromodulation technique with the potential to focally manipulate deep brain activity at millimeter-scale resolution. However, there have been controversies over the direct influence of ultrasound on

Motor Cortex Excitability After Cerebellar Infarction [PDF]
Stroke, 2004 Background and Purpose— The cerebellum has an influence on motor excitability. We investigated if the location of a cerebellar infarction was crucial for changes of motor cortex excitability and if the electrophysiological findings were correlated with motor performance.

Stimulating Cerebellar Outflow Reveals Temporal Control of Motor Cortical Activity
Cell Reports, 2019 Nashef et al. (2019) show that high-frequency stimulation of the superior cerebellar peduncle produces a temporary cerebellar deficit. While the deficit is present, motor cortex neurons that receive cerebellar input maintain their directional tuning but ...

Cerebellar structural variations in subjects with different hypnotizability [PDF]
, 2018 Hypnotizability-the proneness to accept suggestions and behave accordingly-has a number of physiological and behavioral correlates (postural, visuomotor, and pain control) which suggest a possible involvement of cerebellar function and/or structure.

Cerebellum: an explanation for dystonia? [PDF]
, 2017 Dystonia is a movement disorder that is characterized by involuntary muscle contractions, abnormal movements and postures, as well as by non-motor symptoms, and is due to abnormalities in different brain areas.

Cerebellum to motor cortex paired associative stimulation induces bidirectional STDP-like plasticity in human motor cortex [PDF]
, 2012 The cerebellum is crucially important for motor control and adaptation. Recent non-invasive brain stimulation studies have indicated the possibility to alter the excitability of the cerebellum and its projections to the contralateral motor cortex, with ...
