Evidence
After AAV1-hSyn-Cre injection into the fastigial nucleus of Ai9 mice, cell bodies, dendrites and axons expressing tdTomato were consistently and prominently seen in the ventral (ventrolateral/ventromedial) thalamus contralateral to the injection, identifying it as a first-order fastigial target.
