Evidence implicates the cerebellum in motor learning and performance, and relatively simple sensorimotor associations such as classical conditioning. However, little is known about how Purkinje cells encode more complex associations, such as arbitrary stimulus-response mappings. To address this, we recorded from Crus I...
