Neural correlates of cerebellar-mediated timing during finger tapping in children with fetal alcohol spectrum disorders

Neural correlates of cerebellar-mediated timing during finger tapping in children with fetal alcohol spectrum disorders

Objectives: Classical eyeblink conditioning (EBC), an elemental form of learning, is among the most sensitive indicators of fetal alcohol spectrum disorders. The cerebellum plays a key role in maintaining timed movements with millisecond accuracy required for EBC. Functional MRI (fMRI) was used to i...
