As a result of the universal need for properly calibrated movement, it is not surprising that the cerebellum and basal ganglia are widely conserved across Vertebrates from Fish to Humans . Although motor learning is capable of achieving Olympic feats of skill, much has been learned from studies of simple behaviors. These behaviors include Eyeblink Conditioning , motor learning in the Vestibulo-ocular Reflex , and Birdsong . Research on '' Aplysia Californica '', a sea slug, has yielded detailed knowledge of the cellular mechanisms of a simple form of learning. Interesting type of motor learning occurs during operation of Brain-computer Interface . For example, Mikhail Lebedev , Miguel Nicolelis and their colleagues recently demonstrated Cortical Plasticity that resulted in incorporation of an external actuator controlled through a Brain-machine Interface into the subject's neural representation.
