The aim of this historical review is to present the beliefs of the ancient Greeks related to lyssa and how the mythology surrounding this disease was created. In Greek antiquity Lyssa was a secondary goddess, a personification of a zoonotic disease which could be transmitted after an animal bite. Also named hydrophobia, the illness lyssa presented with an acute loss of mental stability, offensive frenzy and madness, and fear of water in the patient, who was seen to be possessed by a daemon as a divine punishment.

A 30-year-old, previously healthy adult male received equine rabies immunoglobulins (Ig) (ERIG) along with anti-rabies vaccinations as per protocol for postexposure prophylaxis after an unprovoked rabid dog bite of grade three wound over the shin of the left lower limb. On the 8th day, he developed urticarial rashes beginning from the site of the wound, which gradually became a widespread maculopapular rash. Development of the rash was followed by low-grade fever, nonspecific arthralgias and soreness in the throat.

Consensus is rapidly building to support a role for the cerebellum beyond motor function, but its contributions to non-motor learning remain poorly understood. Here, we provide behavioral, anatomical and computational evidence to demonstrate a causal role for the primate posterior lateral cerebellum in learning new visuomotor associations. Reversible inactivation of the posterior lateral cerebellum of male monkeys impeded the learning of new visuomotor associations, but had no effect on movement parameters, or on well-practiced performance of the same task.
