Introduction[edit | edit source]
The cerebellum is a vital component in the human brain as it plays a role in motor movement regulation and balance control. The cerebellum [1]
- coordinates gait
- maintains posture,
- controls muscle tone and voluntary muscle activity
- is unable to initiate muscle contraction.
Damage to this area in humans results in a loss in the ability to control fine movements, maintain posture, and motor learning
