Changes in complex spike activity during classical conditioning

The cerebellar cortex is necessary for adaptively timed conditioned responses (CRs) in eyeblink conditioning. During conditioning, Purkinje cells acquire pause responses or Purkinje cell CRs to the conditioned stimuli (CS), resulting in disinhibition of the cerebellar nuclei (CN), allowing them to a...
