8. Cerebellum
   The 'little brain' which sits just above the brain stem. It was previously thought to control movement and coordination but is now known to be involved in 'higher functions' as well, particularly shifting and orienting attention and predicting and preparing biologically for upcoming movements (eg, by altering cerebral blood flow levels).
