Roles of the Cerebellum in Motor Control: Foundations, Experimental Approaches and Clinical Applications is a groundbreaking, comprehensive reference on the intricate relationship between the cerebellum and motor function. Spanning five thorough sections, this book examines experimental approaches, from single neurons to networks, unraveling the mysteries of olivocerebellar somatotopy, motor prediction, and the cellular basis of motor learning. With chapters dedicated to neuroimaging, physiology, and pathophysiology, users will gain insight into the cerebellum's role in conditions such as tremor, dystonia, and Parkinson’s disease.From wearable sensors to digital gait biomarkers, various chapters offer a cutting-edge look at sensor technology and its application in assessing cerebellar function and rehabilitation. The book concludes with a discussion on research and clinical implications, providing a roadmap for translating laboratory findings into effective therapeutic strategies, making it an indispensable resource for researchers, clinicians, and students alike.Offers a diverse perspective on cerebellar motor control and its implications across disciplinesExplores real-world case studies and clinical vignettes to illustrate the practical application of cerebellar research in diagnosing, treating, and managing motor disordersProvides valuable insights into emerging areas of research and potential future developments in cerebellar neuroscience and rehabilitationCaters to a wide audience, including students, researchers, clinicians, and educators to help facilitate learning and understanding across various levels of expertise
