Abstract: While the role of forward models that predict the sensory consequences of an action highlight the role of the cerebellum, less is known about its contributions to the perception of simple and complex dynamic uni- and multisensory signals. Considering temporo-cerebellar-thalamo-cortical circuitry and its respective connectivity patterns, cerebellar contributions should be further explored across domains as they (i) simulate and monitor cortical information processing and (ii) compare expected and actual outcomes of stimulations, leading to potential adaptation in cortical target areas. I will discuss frameworks and present empirical evidence encompassing action, perception, and cognition in support of this idea.
