The paper identifies molecularly distinct Purkinje cell subtypes and shows they regulate specific behaviors through targeted silencing experiments.

This study characterizes Purkinje cell projections to the brainstem, revealing widespread synapses with regional differences and functional selectivity.

The paper shows that granule cell signaling is essential for motor learning but not for many cerebellar-dependent behaviors, while Purkinje cell signaling affects both motor learning and other behaviors.

The paper shows that variable synaptic weights from Purkinje cells to cerebellar nuclei neurons affect both firing rate and timing, suggesting a dual coding mechanism.

The paper investigates spike-frequency adaptation in deep cerebellar nuclei neurons and finds it is unusually slow, allowing linear firing responses on sub-second time scales.
