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
