Résumé

How the cerebellum affects movement onset is poorly understood. In this issue of Neuron, Dacre et al. (2021) establish that in the context of operant conditioning, the transient activation of the cerebello-thalamo-cortical pathway to the motor cortex is sufficient to initiate the conditioned movement.
