The importance of cerebellar cortex in EBC, relative to INP, is a matter of debate in the scientific community.

Famous quotes containing the words role of and/or role:

    Women’s battle for financial equality has barely been joined, much less won. Society still traditionally assigns to woman the role of money-handler rather than money-maker, and our assigned specialty is far more likely to be home economics than financial economics.
    Paula Nelson (b. 1945)

    Betty Friedan (20th century)
