what is the globose nucleus?
whcih fibres pass through it ( and the embolifrom as well)
whcih fibres pass through it ( and the embolifrom as well)
The globose nucleus is one of the deep cerebellar nuclei. It is located medial to the emboliform nucleus and lateral to the fastigial nucleus. This nucleus contains primarily large and small multipolar neurons.
Efferents pass to the deep nuclei of the cerebellum (especially the globose and emboliform), which project in turn via the superior cerebellar peduncle to the contralateral red nucleus of the
midbrain and influence the descending rubrospinal tract
