Book excerpt: "The cerebellum is known to support motor learning – however, the synaptic substrates of learning are a subject of controversy. A previously well-established model of motor learning suggested that long-term depression at parallel fiber-to-Purkinje cell synapses supports motor learning; however how this model works has recently been brought into question. In order to determine what form of plasticity is induced at synapses in the cerebellum during learning, we established and adapted a form of cerebellum-dependent forelimb-reach learning in mice, followed by assessing structural plasticity in the relevant region of the cerebellum. Specifically, we used a sparse-labeling technique to assess the density of dendritic spines onto Purkinje cells, which are the sites of parallel fiber-to-Purkinje cell synapses. Our results demonstrate an inverse correlation between the amount of learning and Purkinje cell spine density, at the level of individual mice. Thus, we provide evidence that depression-like changes do indeed occur at parallel fiber-to-Purkinje cells synapses during motor learning. Moreover, the degree of such plasticity correlates with the amount of learning"--

Book Synopsis Recent insights into perceptual and motor skill learning (The computational and neural processes underlying perceptual and motor skill learning) by : Lior Shmuelof
Download or read book Recent insights into perceptual and motor skill learning (The computational and neural processes underlying perceptual and motor skill learning) written by Lior Shmuelof. This book was released on 2015-03-18. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Improvements in task performance following practice can occur as a result of changes in distinct cognitive and neural processes. In some cases, we can improve our performance by selecting a more successful behavior that is already part of our available repertoire. Skill learning, on the other hand, refers to a slower process that results in improving the ability to perform a behavior, i.e., it involves the acquisition of a behavior that was not available to the controller before training. Skill learning can take place both in the sensory and in the motor domains. Sensory skill acquisition in perceptual learning tasks is measured by improvements in sensory acuity through practice-induced changes in the sensitivity of relevant neural networks. Motor skill is harder to define as the term is used whenever a motor learning behavior improves along some dimension. Nevertheless, we have recently argued that as in perceptual learning, acuity is an integral component in motor skill learning. In this special topic we set out to integrate experimental and theoretical work on perceptual and motor skill learning and to stimulate a discussion regarding the similarities and differences between these two kinds of learning.
