The cerebellum—an area located in the lower rear of the brain—is known to process external and internal information such as sensory cues that influence the development of other brain regions, the researchers report in the journal Neuron. Based on a review of existing research, the researchers offer a new theory that an injury to the cerebellum during early life potentially disrupts this process and leads to what they call developmental diaschisis, which is when a loss of function in one part of the brain leads to problems in another region.
