Research project funded by the National Eye Institute to study cerebellar cortex involvement in eye movement learning and adaptation using primate neural recordings.
Description
This project aims to understand the neural mechanisms of oculomotor learning, focusing on cerebellar microcircuits involving MLIs, Purkinje cells, and climbing fibers. Using high-density neural recordings in the common marmoset, the study will investigate how plasticity within cerebellar circuits facilitates eye movement adaptation.
