Cerebellum Controls Thirst, Not Just Motor Functions

A new study reveals the cerebellum's role in controlling thirst, beyond its known motor functions.

Researchers found that the hormone asprosin activates Purkinje neurons in the cerebellum, driving the urge to drink water.

This discovery could lead to new treatments for thirst disorders.

The study highlights the cerebellum's broader impact on essential survival functions.

I am very proud to share our recent study published today showing structured connectivity between Purkinje cells and cells in the cerebellar nuclei, work done by the talented Kim Gruver (@ScienceJW ) and others. (1/5)

[Takayuki Yamashita @tylab_official]

Excited to see our research featured on the cover of the Journal of Neuroscience! Our recent paper (@M_kawatni et al.) shows how spontaneous movement impacts on the somatosensory cortex.

If you are interested in mechanisms of sensorimotor processing in health and disease, then our PhD project may be of interest. The SIDB DTP provides a fantastic learning opportunity in a highly collaborative and supportive environment. Do have a look and apply👇🏻

[Alanna Watt @alanna_j_watt]

The Watt lab is seeking a Postdoc with in vivo experience to study cerebellar circuits in health and in disease! Great work environment, important scientific questions, all in a fantastic city! Details here: https://t.co/im4eFz7B7B
Please Repost and share widely!

The Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology is recruiting new faculty in all areas of science, with a special interest in junior (female) computational neuroscientists. Experience a new model of scientific freedom in an innovative university! Info at https://t.co/K32tl6X0j1

[Spencer LaVere Smith @Labrigger]

Posterior parietal cortex (PPC) in mice is an overloaded circuit. It has been credited with a ton of different functions. Riichiro Hira has disentangled some of it and provides a new view into its architecture in this work: https://t.co/eOVjcTFtWn (1/6)

[Dimitar Kostadinov @dimvladkost]

We are looking for a Postdoc to be one of the founding members of @dkneurolab in @dev_neuro at King's College London! Position is fully funded and will focus on how the cerebellum talks to the forebrain.

Please share and apply here by 20 September: https://t.co/FyPsUFObPZ

Fantastic paper links hypersensitivity in ASD and spiking of cerebellar granule cells!

[Dustin Herrmann @zwitscherdustin]

Thrilled to share my PhD work, out in @nature today. @fisekmehmet & I developed an all-optical approach to study long-range connectivity across brain areas. Upshot: visual feedback is spatially organized & nonlinearly integrated in V1 apical dendrites. https://t.co/VuMwuB8tes
