This study aimed to investigate abnormalities in inhibitory cortical excitability and motor control during ballistic-targeting movements in individuals with degenerative cerebellar ataxia (DCA).
A recent study found that the way cerebellar neurons communicate with other brain regions is different in various movement disorders. The cerebellum is a region of the brain that helps us refine our ...
Cerebellar ataxia results from dysfunction of the cerebellum, which is part of the brain that helps regulate and control movement and balance. People may experience changes in gait, speech, and eye ...
The cerebellum is a region of the brain that helps us refine our movements and learn new motor skills. Patients and mouse models experience many kinds of abnormal movements when their cerebellum is ...
