The cerebellum plays a role in wide variety of complex behaviors. In order to better understand the human behavior, it is important know how this structure interacts with cortical and other subcortical regions brain. To date, several studies have investigated using resting-state functional connectivity magnetic resonance imaging (fcMRI; Buckner et al., 2011; Krienen & Buckner, 2009; O'Reilly 2009). However, none work has taken an anatomically-driven approach. Furthermore, though detailed...
Cerebellar contributions to motor learning are well documented. For example, under some conditions, patients with cerebellar damage impaired at visuomotor adaptation and acquiring new action sequences. Moreover, activation has been observed in functional MRI investigations of various tasks. The early phases cognitively demanding, relying on processes such as working memory, which have linked the cerebellum well. Here, we investigated using likelihood estimation meta-analysis. This allowed us...
Prospective longitudinal evaluation of adolescents at ultra-high-risk (UHR) for the development psychosis enables an enriched neurodevelopmental perspective disease progression in absence many factors that typically confound research with formally psychotic patients (antipsychotic medications, drug/alcohol dependence). The cerebellum has been linked to cognitive dysfunction and symptom severity schizophrenia recent work from our team suggests it is a promising target investigation UHR...
Despite known deficits in postural control patients with schizophrenia, this domain has not been investigated youth at ultra high-risk (UHR) for psychosis. This is particularly relevant as implicates dysfunction the cerebellum-a region implicated cognitive dysmetria conceptions of schizophrenia but poorly understood prodrome. Here, we extended our understanding movement abnormalities UHR individuals to include control, and have linked these both symptom severity cerebello-cortical network...
The cerebellar dentate nucleus has been reported to project motor and prefrontal cortical regions in nonhuman primates from 2 anatomically distinct areas. However, despite a wealth of human neuroimaging data implicating the cerebellum cognitive behaviors, evidence dissociable networks comprising is lacking. To investigate existence these brain, we used resting-state functional connectivity magnetic resonance imaging. fMRI signal was extracted interest dorsal ventral nucleus. We report...
Cerebellar morphology and function have been implicated in a variety of developmental disorders, healthy aging. Although recent work has sought to characterize the relationships between volume age this structure during adolescence, young, older adulthood, there no investigations regional cerebellar from adolescence through late middle age. Middle particular largely understudied, investigating period lifespan may be especially important for our understanding senescence. Understanding patterns...
The cognitive dysmetria framework postulates that the deficits seen in schizophrenia are due to underlying cerebello-thalamo-cortical dysfunction. cerebellum is thought be crucial formation of internal models for both motor and behaviors. In healthy individuals there a functional topography within cerebellum. Alterations activation patients may indicative altered models, providing support this framework. Using state-of-the-art neuroimaging meta-analysis, we investigated cerebellar across...
Abstract Despite the clinical impact of motor symptoms such as agitation or retardation on course depression, these are poorly understood. Novel developments in field instrumentation and mobile devices allow for dimensional continuous recording behavior various settings, particularly outside laboratory. Likewise, use novel assessments enables to combine multimodal neuroimaging with behavioral measures order investigate neural correlates dysfunction depression. The research domain criteria...
Though schizophrenia (SCZ) is classically defined based on positive symptoms and the negative of disease prove to be debilitating for many patients, motor deficits are often present as well. A growing literature highlights importance systems networks in disease, it may case that dysfunction relates pathophysiology etiology SCZ. To test this build upon recent work SCZ at-risk populations, we investigated cortical cerebellar functional at rest controls using publically available data. We...
