Cerebellar signatures of vestibulo-ocular reflex motor learning.
The vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) comprises an outstanding system to perform studies that probe possible cerebellar roles in motor learning. Novel VOR gains can be induced (learned) by the wearing of minifying or magnifying lenses, and learning requires the presence of the cerebellum. Previously, it was shown that Purkinje cells change their head velocity sensitivities with learning and that th...
متن کاملCerebellar learning in the vestibulo-ocular reflex.
The vestibulo-ocular reflex, because of its close relationship with the cerebellum and its marked adaptiveness, has become a model system for studying the functions of the cerebellum. It has been hypothesized that an evolutionarily old part of the cerebellum, the flocculus, forms a modifiable accessory pathway for the vestibulo-ocular reflex arc for adaptive control, and that the modification i...
متن کاملRapid motor learning in the translational vestibulo-ocular reflex.
Motor learning was induced in the translational vestibulo-ocular reflex (TVOR) when monkeys were repeatedly subjected to a brief (0.5 sec) head translation while they tried to maintain binocular fixation on a visual target for juice rewards. If the target was world-fixed, the initial eye speed of the TVOR gradually increased; if the target was head-fixed, the initial eye speed of the TVOR gradu...
متن کاملThe vestibulo-ocular reflex: computation in the cerebellar flocculus
The function of the vestibulo-ocular reflex, commonly known as the VOR, is to stabilise an image on the surface of the retina during head movement. One of the parts of the brain involved in this reflex is the flocculus in the cerebellum, which integrates information from multiple sources, including the vestibular apparatus in the labyrinth of the middle ear, motion detectors in visual cortex, a...
متن کاملHyperactive vestibulo-ocular reflex in cerebellar degeneration: pathogenesis and treatment.
We studied a patient with a cerebellar degeneration and hyperactive vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR). He complained of oscillopsia and blurred vision with head movement. A twofold increase in VOR gain (peak eye velocity/peak head velocity) at high frequencies was associated with a VOR time constant of 6 seconds (low normal). Visual cancellation ("suppression") of the VOR and smooth pursuit were al...
