-
Excitatory inputs enter the cerebellar cortex via
inferior and middle cerebellar peduncle.
-
Inhibitory outputs to cerebellar nuclei are projected by
purkinje cells
-

-
Impairments in egocentric disorientation, which describes the inability
to represent object location with respect to the self, is associated with
damage to
posterior parietal cortex
-
The inability to use major landmarks to navigate, associated with
damming to lingual gyrus, is termed
landmark agnosia
-
Heading disorientation, the inability to represent direction of
orientation in respect to one’s own environment, is associated with damage to
the
posterior cingulate gyrus
