The Nuclei pontis are nuclear groups located in the Pons of the Brainstem and are involved in the regulation and learning of motor activity.
Anatomy
The Nuclei pontis receive their afferents from the primary motor cortex and relay them from there via the middle cerebellar peduncle as Fibrae pontis transversae to the cerebellum.
Function
The Nuclei pontis are presumably involved in the correction of movement sequences and the learning of new movement patterns[^1].
