This video discusses the role of the cerebellum in stress and emotional regulation. The speaker, Daniel Monti, M.D., explains that new research has shown that the cerebellum is connected to the limbic brain, which is involved in emotions. This connection helps to explain how the cerebellum can influence stress and emotional regulation. Dr. Monti also mentions that this is the first time that such changes in cerebellar connections have been observed in response to an intervention. This finding is significant because it suggests that the cerebellum may be a target for interventions to help people cope with distressing events.
