Cerebellum Study Points to Purkinje Cells as Timing Predictors for Future Events
Researchers in the Netherlands report that cerebellar Purkinje cells encode probability-based expectations about when events will occur, offering new detail on how the brain may implement predictive inference.
Key Takeaways
- Researchers trained mice to expect an air puff after a visual cue.
- The work suggests the cerebellum learns probability distributions of temporal events.
