Complex motor behaviors involve the precise coordination of different body parts. While motor coordination has been extensively studied in expert animals, the behavioral and neural processes involved in its emergence through learning are still not well understood. To answer this question, we combined longitudinal behavioral analyses with population recordings from the cerebellum, which is a key region for movement coordination and motor learning. We trained mice to walk on a motorized runged treadmill over multiple days while Ca2+-activity was recorded from cerebellar molecular layer interneur
