Concept essentials

  • Cerebellum role depends on linking the stimulus to the coordinating structure or signal.
  • The pathway for cerebellum role must keep information flow and response direction clear.
  • Named tissues, hormones, neurons or effectors give cerebellum role its biological specificity.
  • Evidence about cerebellum role is strongest when structure, mechanism and outcome are connected.
