This paper describes two viral strategies for optogenetic control of Purkinje cells and electrophysiological analysis of downstream cerebellar nuclear activity in mice.

This study examines the effects of Chd8 haploinsufficiency on cerebellar development and function in mice, revealing cell-type-specific transcriptomic and physiological changes.

The paper introduces a biomimetic model that generates simulated neural activity and cognitive phenomena, validated against experimental data, and discovers a new neural code predicting erroneous behaviors.

The paper identifies a novel disynaptic cerebellum-amygdala pathway via the intralaminar thalamus, providing a mechanistic link between the cerebellum and limbic system for emotional processing.

This study shows that high-frequency stimulation of ventral CA1 neurons inhibits fear expression by reducing amygdala activity, similar to findings in dorsal CA1.

This study shows that cerebellar stimulation modulates NAc core and medial shell activity with fast excitation and slower inhibition, revealing functional connectivity through VTA and thalamus.
