In a study published in <em>Nature Communications<\/em>, scientists have shown that the activity of certain neurons in the cerebellum synchronises with the transitions between the support and swing phases of the mice\u2019s limbs during a complex locomotor task. This research reveals a new neural mechanism involved in controlling the precision of movements and sheds light on motor coordination disorders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Find out more:\u00a0<\/strong>Andrianarivelo, A., Stein, H., Gabillet, J.\u00a0<em>et al.<\/em>\u00a0Cerebellar activity is triggered by reach endpoint during learning of a complex locomotor task.\u00a0<br><em>Nature Communication<\/em>\u00a0(2026).\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1038\/s41467-026-74823-1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1038\/s41467-026-74823-1<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Scientific contact at ISIR: <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.isir.upmc.fr\/personnel\/stein\/?lang=en\">Heike Stein<\/a><\/strong>, CNRS research fellow; <a href=\"mailto:stein@isir.upmc.fr\">stein@isir.upmc.fr<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-white-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-white-background-color has-background\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Published on 06\/08\/2026<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":12769,"template":"","isir_news_categories":[256],"class_list":["post-12770","isir_news","type-isir_news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","isir_news_categories-resultat-scientifique"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.isir.upmc.fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/isir_news\/12770","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.isir.upmc.fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/isir_news"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.isir.upmc.fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/isir_news"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.isir.upmc.fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/12769"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.isir.upmc.fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12770"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"isir_news_categories","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.isir.upmc.fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/isir_news_categories?post=12770"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
