SUMMARY:Dr. Douglas Wylie: Cerebellar Control of Flight in Birds: Easy as 1\, 2\, 3
DESCRIPTION:Zoom option if unable to attend in person:\nZoom link here (click on “Join a meeting”)\nMeeting ID: 91512 289258\nPasscode: 289258\n\nThe cerebellum contains the majority of neurons in the brain and has been implicated with many aspects of motor control. In birds this includes the control of flight. In this talk\, by synthesizing behavioral\, neurophysiological\, neuroanatomical and paleontological data I will emphasize three points: (i) the expansion of the cerebellum in birds is associated with the evolution of powered flight; (ii) retinal-recipient nuclei that analyze optic flow are critical for controlling flight; and (iii) three different visuomotor areas of the cerebellum are involved in controlling different aspects of flight.
