Non‐technical summary Cerebellar vermis consists of 10 lobules, and each lobule receives different sensory information. Afferent inputs are integrated in cerebellar Purkinje cells (PCs) which are the sole output of the cerebellar cortex. We show that intrinsic membrane properties are widely different between PCs in the spinocerebellum (lobules III–V) and vestibulocerebellum (lobule X).
