Yоu аre wоrking with Juliаn, а 19-year-оld collegiate baseball pitcher recovering from a mild traumatic brain injury. While his strength and range of motion have returned, he continues to struggle with fine motor timing during throwing drills. You suspect that disrupted motor learning processes in the cerebellum may be contributing to his impaired coordination. During a discussion with Julian, you explain that one theory of cerebellar involvement in motor learning centers on the interaction between parallel fibers and climbing fibers, which together influence Purkinje cell output. Which neuroplasticity process is triggered when parallel fibers and climbing fibers fire simultaneously at the parallel fiber–Purkinje cell synapse?
