  2. Olivary body - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olivary_body

    The olive consists of two parts: The inferior olivary nucleus (or 'complex'), which is a part of the olivo-cerebellar system and is mainly involved in cerebellar motor-learning and function. The superior olivary nucleus, considered part of the pons and part of the auditory system, aiding the perception of sound.

  3. Olivocerebellar tract - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olivocerebellar_tract

    The olivocerebellar tract, also known as olivocerebellar fibers, are neural fibers which originate at the olivary nucleus and pass out through the hilum and decussate with those from the opposite olive in the raphe nucleus, then as internal arcuate fibers they pass partly through and partly around the opposite olive and enter the inferior peduncle to be distributed to the cerebellar hemisphere ...

  5. Inferior olivary nucleus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inferior_olivary_nucleus

    The inferior olivary nucleus (ION) is a structure found in the medulla oblongata underneath the superior olivary nucleus. [1] In vertebrates, the ION is known to coordinate signals from the spinal cord to the cerebellum to regulate motor coordination and learning. [2]

  6. Spino-olivary tract - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spino-olivary_tract

    The axons end by synapsing on third-order neurons in the inferior olivary nuclei in the medulla oblongata. The axons of the third-order neurons cross the midline and enter the cerebellum through the inferior cerebellar peduncle. [2] The spino-olivary tract conveys information to the cerebellum from cutaneous and proprioceptive organs.

  7. Climbing fiber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Climbing_fiber

    Climbing fibers are the name given to a series of neuronal projections from the inferior olivary nucleus located in the medulla oblongata. [1] [2] These axons pass through the pons and enter the cerebellum via the inferior cerebellar peduncle where they form synapses with the deep cerebellar nuclei and Purkinje cells. Each climbing fiber will ...

  8. Brainstem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brainstem

    The medulla oblongata, often just referred to as the medulla, is the lower half of the brainstem continuous with the spinal cord. Its upper part is continuous with the pons. [11]: 1121 The medulla contains the cardiac, dorsal and ventral respiratory groups, and vasomotor centres, dealing with heart rate, breathing and blood pressure.
