The cerebral cortex is interconnected with two major subcortical structures: the basal ganglia
and the cerebellum. How and where cerebellar circuits interact with basal ganglia circuits�…

The basal ganglia and cerebellum are major subcortical structures that influence not only
movement, but putatively also cognition and affect. Both structures receive input from and�…

We used transneuronal transport of neurotropic viruses to examine the topographic
organization of circuits linking the cerebellar cortex with the arm area of the primary motor�…

We have used retrograde transneuronal transport of rabies virus to examine basal ganglia
connections with the cerebral cortex. We injected rabies into the primary motor cortex (M1)�…

Neuroanatomical studies using transneuronal virus tracers in macaque monkeys recently
demonstrated that substantial interactions exist between basal ganglia and the cerebellum�…

The cerebellum has a medial, cortico-nuclear zone consisting of the cerebellar vermis and
the fastigial nucleus. Functionally, this zone is concerned with whole-body posture and�…

The cerebellum is known to project via the thalamus to multiple motor areas of the cerebral
cortex. In this study, we examined the extent and anatomical organization of cerebellar input�…

Employing retrograde transsynaptic transport of rabies virus, we investigated the
organization of basal ganglia inputs to hindlimb, proximal and distal forelimb, and orofacial�…

Modern medicine has generally viewed the concept of “psychosomatic” disease with
suspicion. This view arose partly because no neural networks were known for the mind�…

The possibility that neurons in the basal ganglia and cerebellum innervate areas of the
cerebral cortex that are involved in cognitive function has been a controversial subject. Here�…
