cerebellar hemispheres

The cerebellar hemispheres are the two large, symmetrical parts of the cerebellum, located at the back of the brain. They are responsible for coordinating voluntary movements, maintaining balance, and ensuring smooth, precise motion. Each hemisphere primarily manages movements on the same side of the body and works with other brain regions to fine-tune muscle activity. Their proper functioning is essential for everyday tasks like walking, writing, and playing sports, helping movements stay coordinated and accurate.
