Congrats to Martijn Schonewille for obtaining the VIci grant  for his research of movement and the small brain

Martijn Schonewille, professor at the department of Neuroscience, receives a Vici grant of NWO.

Martijn will use the grant for research into how the small brain, or the cerebellum, controls movements. He explains: 'Moving through an environment requires the correct integration of current position, sensory input and desired outcome. The cerebellum, with the Purkinje cell as its main nerve cell, plays an important role in this. But it is still unclear how the cerebellum does this.
