CEREBELLAR NUCLEI IN EYE MOVEMENT CONTROL & ADAPTATION

这项研究的目的是了解小脑如何帮助 眼球运动 我们知道小脑在每一个 我们做运动，但我们不知道它到底做什么或如何 我们可以通过研究小脑来更快地取得进展 而不是肢体或其他运动，因为我们知道， 大脑如何产生眼球运动比其他任何 动作 我们的研究结果也将帮助我们理解大脑是如何 产生眼球运动。 眼球运动是我们 生活 每天我们做成千上万的眼球运动去看 对感兴趣的东西看得很清楚。 眼内斜视 运动严重降低了我们阅读、观察和视觉引导的能力。 我们的其他运动。 在其他项目中，我们正在调查 小脑在精确眼球运动中的作用 因为某些东西使它们变得不准确。 小脑已经 与无意识的学习有关， 准确，但我们不知道它扮演什么角色。 1997年，我们出版了 一个关于正常猴子如何适应快速眼的详细描述 动作 这个描述将帮助我们研究大脑是如何 修改动作以保持准确。 我们还发布了一份 描述尾顶核在慢波中的作用 我们用来观察缓慢移动的 目标的 最后，我们提交了一篇论文， 快速的眼球运动影响这些运动的表现。 这 信息将帮助我们正确解释眼动数据 我们从猴子身上收集到的适应性。

The goal of this research is to understand how the cerebellum aids eye movements. We know that the cerebellum is important in every movement we make, but we do not know exactly what it does or how it does it. We can make progress faster by investigating the cerebellum with eye movements than with limb or other movements because we know much more about how the brain produces eye movements than any other movements. Our results will also help us understand how the brain produces eye movements. Eye movements are an important part of our lives. Every day we make tens of thousands of eye movements to look at things of interest and see them clearly. Abnormalities in eye movements severely reduce our ability to read, see, and visually guide our other movements. Among other projects, we are investigating the role of the cerebellum in the ability to make eye movements accurate after something has made them inaccurate. The cerebellum has been implicated in the unconscious learning that keeps our movements accurate, but we do not know what role it plays. In 1997 we published a detailed description of how normal monkeys adapt their rapid eye movements. This description will help us investigate how the brain modifies movements to keep them accurate. We also published a description of the role of the caudal fastigial nucleus in the slow smooth-pursuit eye movements that we use to look at slowly moving targets. Finally, we submitted a paper on how making many repeated rapid eye movements affects the performance of these movements. This information will help us correctly interpret data on eye movement adaptation that we collect from monkeys.
