Simple spike dynamics of Purkinje cells in the macaque vestibulo-cerebellum during passive whole-body self-motion [Neuroscience]

Theories of cerebellar functions posit that the cerebellum implements internal models for online correction of motor actions and sensory estimation. As an example of such computations, an internal model resolves a sensory ambiguity where the peripheral otolith organs in the inner ear sense both head tilts and translations. Here we...
