Methylmercury (MeHg) is a widely known environmental pollutant that causes severe
neurotoxicity. MeHg-induced neurotoxicity depends on various cellular conditions, including …

Research suggests that sensorimotor difficulties in autism could be reduced by providing
individuals with explicit contextual information. To test this, we examined autistic visuomotor …

Cerebellar computations are necessary for fine behavioural control and may rely on internal
models for estimation of behaviourally relevant states. Here, we propose that the central …

GlyT2-positive interneurons, Golgi and Lugaro cells, reside in the input layer of the
cerebellar cortex in a key position to influence information processing. Here, we examine the …

As an excitatory neuron in the cerebellum, the granule cells play a crucial role in motor
learning. The assembly of NMDAR in these neurons varies in developmental stages, while …

The cerebellum is involved in a wide range of behaviors including the coordination of reflex
and voluntary movements, postural adjustments to maintain balance, and the learning of …

This thesis examined the aetiology of sensorimotor impairments in Autism Spectrum
Disorder: a neurodevelopmental condition that affects an individual's sociobehavioural …

In order to perceive the world around us, and to successfully interact within it and with other
actors, we must be able to predict the causes of our sensations. However, abnormal …

During flexible behaviour, dopamine is thought to carry reward prediction errors (RPEs),
which update values and hence modify future behaviour. However, in real-world situations …

The cerebellum is important for behavioural control. It is not necessary for the generation of
behaviour, but it is critical for its fluency and coordination. Its computations are often …
