For years, serotonin has been linked to anxiety, but new research flips the script—higher serotonin in the cerebellum might ...

While caring for these unfortunate individuals, Holmes observed that damage to a small structure at the base of the brain called the cerebellum, which means “little brain” in Latin, primarily led to ...

Understanding the neural circuits that drive anxiety may help researchers discover circuit-specific targets and therefore ...

The cerebellum is a fist-size structure tucked below the cerebral cortex—the part of the brain that we typically attribute to higher-order cognitive processes, including consciousness, language, and ...

Toward the bottom of the brain are more primitive structures, including the cerebellum and brain stem. These also fulfill critical functions. Running through parts of the brain are a dozen pairs ...

For decades, the cerebellum was primarily associated with motor coordination. "People with cerebellar abnormalities often ...
