thalamusrelays motor and sensory information between cortex, basal ganglia, spinal cord and cerebellum
hypothalamusinfluences ANS responses
temperature dysregulationhypothalamus
emotional controlhypothalamus & limbic system
cerebelluminfluences motor coordination via indirect pathways through basal ganglia
controls coordination of voluntary musclescerebellum
cerebellum feedback loopcompares what movement occurs to what the cortex intended to perform
injury causes ipsilateral hypotoniacerebellar dysfunction
dysynergiasymptom of cerebellar injury
