Description:

Dr. Abigail Person, Ph.D.

Professor, Department of Physiology and Biophysics at the University of Colorado School of Medicine

Abstract:

What does the cerebellum do? This question still entices scientists because the relatively uniform architecture of cerebellar circuitry suggests there may be an answer. Here I will discuss my lab's progress in identifying a computation from the cerebellum that structures movements and discuss progress in understanding how that computation is made by the circuit.
