Compositional recombination is facilitated by a distributed cortico-cerebellar network

Compositional recombination is facilitated by a distributed cortico-cerebellar network
Tan et al. demonstrate that flexible human cognition relies on two distinct neural processes: specialized brain regions that handle specific task components, and a distributed cortico-cerebellar network that recombines these components. This finding indicates that the cortico-cerebellar network serves an important role in coordinating complex, generalized cognition across different contexts.

Love this. “Spontaneous” has always really meant “we don’t know why X is happening”, a perspective tied to the dominance of structured task paradigms for studying cognition, behavior, and brain activity.
