Anatomy and Function of the Cerebellum

What is the CEREBELLUM?

Labelled Structure of the Cerebellum

How is the Cerebellum ORGANIZED?

How can the Cerebellum be DIVIDED ANATOMICALLY and FUNCTIONALLY?

Cerebellum Organization - CEREBROCEREBELLUM

Cerebellum Organization - VESTIBULOCEREBELLUM

Vestibulocerebellum

1) Aligns with flocculonodular lobe

2) Regulate equilibrium and balance

3) Also, regulates eye movements

Cerebellum Organization - SPINOCEREBELLUM

Spinocerebellum

1) Vermal and paravermal areas

2) Regulates relatively gross movements of the limbs and muscle tone, and movement correction
