Neural circuits process temporal intervals during adaptive behaviour. However, it is unclear how temporal information enables the brain to create causal maps and predict future events. While the cerebellum is well-known to support sub-second intervals for motor control, the ability to track environmental changes in the range of seconds to minutes is thought to be supported mostly by cerebral areas. We hypothesized that the cerebellum also contributes to behavioural control on a supra-second timescale by interacting with the neocortex through cerebro-cerebellar loops. Using a supra-second time
