 The cerebellum monitors and regulates motor
behavior, particularly automatic movements.
 Some recent studies have associated the
cerebellum with cognitive functions, such as
learning and attention.
 Although the cerebellum accounts for roughly
10% of total brain weight, it contains more
neurons than the rest of the brain combined.
 The cerebellum is also one of the few mammalian
brain structures where adult neurogenesis (the
development of new neurons) has been
confirmed.

 The cerebellum is important to the timing of
rhythmic movements.
 A recent neuroimaging study by Brown and
colleagues (2006) examined the neural basis
of dance and found evidence of cerebellar
activity during entrainment (synchronizing
timing and movement with musical rhythm).

 Individuals with autism sometimes walk with
a clumsy gait, a phenomenon that has been
linked to the cerebellum.
 Schizophrenia and dyslexia have also been
associated with cerebellar dysfunction.
