In the article "Evidence that Climbing Fibers Control an Intrinsic Spike Generator in Cerebellar Purkinje Cells," by Nadia L. Cerminara and John A. Rawson, which appeared on pages 4510-4517 of the May 12, 2004 issue, the work of Womack and Khodakhah [Womack M, Khodakhah K (2002) Active contribution of dendrites to the tonic and trimodal patterns of activity in cerebellar Purkinje neurons. J Neurosci 22:10603-10612] was inadvertently overlooked. They demonstrated that mature Purkinje cells in the acute cerebellar slice fire in cycles with periods of bursting activity and periods of silence when synaptic inputs are pharmacologically blocked. This pattern of firing is identical to that described by Cerminara and Rawson in the in vivo anesthetized rat when climbing fibers are inactivated.
