This study shows that motor experience induces structural changes in the inferior olive of adult male mice, including increased dendritic complexity and gap junction density, suggesting plasticity in the olivo-cerebellar network.

This study examines superior colliculus projections to inferior olivary neurons in mice, revealing additional projections to the ventral principal olive and their functional impact on spiking and synchronization.

DISK uses deep learning to impute missing skeleton data in animal behavior studies, improving reliability and enabling more accurate motion analysis.

This study identifies a vestibulospinal pathway that modulates mouse tail movement based on balance context, improving stability during challenging tasks.

This study uses in vivo calcium imaging to analyze spontaneous and sensory-evoked activity in inferior olive neurons, revealing the role of co-activation and cerebellar feedback in shaping complex spike dynamics.

This study quantifies mouse tail movements in response to balance perturbations and shows their role in maintaining posture and controlling center of mass during locomotion.
