Regionalization of Purkinje cells. Schematic drawing of the region-specific Purkinje cell activity triggered by visual stimuli. PCs in the rostromedially region are primarily active when translational motion is detected by the visuo-sensory system and are involved in overall swimming and turning maneuvers (purple). Purkinje cells in the medial region are mostly active when luminance changes are detected and also during motor learning (cyan). The PCs in the caudal region are most prominently active when stimulated by rotational motion and are mainly involved in precise eye and body coordination (yellow). EC eurydendroid cell, GC granule cell, IO inferior olive, PC Purkinje cell. This figure is based on the findings of [97] and was just slightly adapted to fit the style of this review
