Synopsis

Cerebellum Development and Disease, Volume 167 offers a comprehensive overview of the intricate processes underlying the formation, maturation, and function of the cerebellum, as well as the wide spectrum of disorders that can affect this essential brain region. Chapters in this new release cover Olivocerebellar circuit development as a substrate for dystonia pathogenesis, Simply complex – that structure of the cerebellar neuronal lineage, Ontogenesis and diversification of cerebellar glia: a developmental perspective, Purkinje cell diversification: a blueprint for cerebellar development, patterning, and evolution, On the Emergence of Folding in the Cerebellum, Scaling and regeneration in the developing cerebellum, ASTN2 in ASD and Neurodevelopmental Disorders, and much more.

Additional sections focus on Stem cell-derived in vitro models of human cerebellar development, Development of Spinocerebellar System within the Precerebellar Network, and Cerebellum evo-devo. The book brings together leading experts in neurodevelopment, neurobiology, genetics, and clinical neurosciences to explore the molecular and cellular mechanisms guiding cerebellar development, from embryogenesis to adulthood.

• Covers the molecular, genetic, and cellular mechanisms underlying the development of the cerebellum from embryogenesis to adulthood
• Bridges fundamental neurobiological insights with clinical perspectives on cerebellar disorders
• Explores critical signaling pathways, transcription factors, and gene networks involved in cerebellar patterning, growth, and maturation
