Neural mechanisms of learning and control

Recent advances in motor control and learning are introduced, namely, the role of the basal ganglia in acquisition of goal-directed behaviors, learning of internal models by the cerebellum, and decomposition of complex tasks by the competition of predictive models.

Recent advances in understanding the role of the basal ganglia

A comparative overview of classic and contemporary models of basal ganglia organization and functional importance are presented, including their increased integration with cortical and cerebellar structures.

Functional Anatomy of Basal Ganglia Circuits with the Cerebral Cortex and the Cerebellum.

Findings indicate that abnormal activity in basal ganglia circuits with the cerebral cortex and with the cerebellum may contribute to both motor and non-motor deficits associated with several neurologic and psychiatric conditions.

The Basal Ganglia and Motor Control

The question of whether clumsiness may be, at least in part, attributed to dysfunction of the basal ganglia is discussed in the context of the differential, complementary, or interactive roles of theBasal ganglia and the cerebellum in the development of motor control.

Interactions Between the Basal Ganglia and the Cerebellum and Role in Neurological Disorders

Mechanistic insights have helped determine how aberrant activity in the cerebellum can dynamically affect the basal ganglia, and will promote the development of novel therapeutic approaches to target defective networks in multiple pathologies.

The Cerebellum and Basal Ganglia are Interconnected

It is shown that the anatomical substrate exists for substantial interactions between the cerebellum and the basal ganglia and how these pathways may provide a useful framework for understanding cerebellar contributions to the manifestation of two prototypical basalganglia disorders, Parkinson’s disease and dystonia.

Basal Ganglia Output and Cognition: Evidence from Anatomical, Behavioral, and Clinical Studies

A new anatomical framework is presented for understanding the basal ganglia contributions to nonmotor function and it is shown that the activity of neurons within selected portions of the basal Ganglia is more related to cognitive or sensory operations than to motor functions.

Cerebellum Implicated in Sensory Acquisition and Discrimination Rather Than Motor Control

These findings suggest that the lateral cerebellum may be active during motor, perceptual, and cognitive performances specifically because of the requirement to process sensory data.

The Cerebellum: A Neuronal Learning Machine?

Comparison of two seemingly quite different behaviors yields a surprisingly consistent picture of the role of the cerebellum in motor learning, and many of the similarities in the data from the two systems typify general features of cerebellar organization.

Attentional Activation of the Cerebellum Independent of Motor Involvement

Findings support a broader concept of cerebellar function, in which the cerebellum is involved in diverse cognitive and noncognitive neurobehavioral systems, including the attention and motor systems, in order to anticipate imminent information acquisition, analysis, or action.

Anatomical evidence for cerebellar and basal ganglia involvement in higher cognitive function.

Retrograde transneuronal transport of herpes simplex virus type 1 was used to identify subcortical neurons that project via the thalamus to area 46 of the primate prefrontal cortex, defining an anatomical substrate for the involvement of basal ganglia and cerebellar output in higher cognitive function.

Role of the basal ganglia in the control of purposive saccadic eye movements.

The interaction between cortical and dopaminergic inputs to CD neurons may underlie the behavioral adaptation toward purposeful saccades, which reflects working memory, expectation, and attention.

Striatal activation during acquisition of a cognitive skill.

The left hippocampus was less active bilaterally during probabilistic classification than during the control task, and the time course of this hippocampal deactivation paralleled the expected involvement of medial temporal structures based on behavioral studies of amnesic patients.
