The cerebellum is involved in the control of motor and nonmotor
functions. Refined and innovative experimental and clinical approaches,
starting from anatomy and including functional magnetic resonance
imaging (fMRI), have allowed researchers to store extensive information
on the cerebellar contributions to motor control and also helped them to
understanding cerebellar nonmotor functions. Does the cerebellum process
exclusively cerebral information related to certain specificactions, or
does it also process some forms of information independent of such
relation? At present, researchers are close to evaluating how the
cerebellum is active during resolution of cognitive tasks. Various
therapy lines in perspective, from cerebellar stimulation to cerbellar
grafts and artificial cerebellum, are of particular significance, as
they can restore lost brain functions in animal models and repair in
sufficient brain processes in patients.
