Head impulses in complete bilateral vestibular loss: Catch-up saccades require visual input [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Patients with bilateral vestibular loss (BVL) experience oscillopsia during passive head movements,(1) e.g., walking or driving. Because their vestibulo-ocular reflex does not stabilize gaze with compensatory eye movements, patients with vestibular ...

Phase coupling between eye and brain pulsations is bidirectional and modulated by the parasympathetic system – An fMREye study

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Physiological pulsations driven by cardiac, respiratory, and vasomotor activity are essential for solute transport within perivascular and perineural cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pathways that support brain and eye clearance systems. Previous studies have shown that parasympathetic blockade significantly reduces ocular pulsation power and

Eye movements during auditory attention predict individual differences in dorsal attention network activity

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2016
The neural mechanisms supporting auditory attention are not fully understood. A dorsal frontoparietal network of brain regions is thought to mediate the spatial orienting of attention across all sensory modalities.

Covert Saccades in Suppression Head Impulse Paradigm: Compensation Strategy in Unilateral Vestibulopathy

open access: yesKorean Journal of Otorhinolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery
Background and Objectives In the suppression head impulse paradigm (SHIMP), an alternative protocol to the conventional head impulse paradigm (HIMP) in the video head impulse test (vHIT), covert saccades (CSs) are infrequent, unlike in HIMP. However, some patients with unilateral vestibular loss (UVL) reportedly manifest CSs in SHIMP.

No evidence that same‐language subtitles improve children's reading fluency

open access: yesBritish Journal of Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract High‐profile campaigns globally have argued that same‐language television subtitles may help children improve their reading. In this intervention study, we tested the causal hypothesis that exposure to subtitles improves children's reading fluency.

Elements of Feed-Forward and Feedback Control in Drosophila Body Saccades [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
I have developed a new experimental preparation of the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster. A fly is glued to a steel pin, which is held in the field between two magnets such that the fly is free to rotate about only one axis. Such "magnetically tethered"

Dynamic Change of VOR and Otolith Function in Intratympanic Gentamicin Treatment for Ménière’s Disease: Case Report and Review of the Literature

open access: yesCase Reports in Otolaryngology, 2013
Intratympanic gentamicin treatment (IGT) is an evidence-based therapeutic option for recurrent vertigo attacks in Ménière’s disease (MD). Today, in MD it is possible to monitor changes of vestibular receptor function, induced by IGT, with objective test ...

In silico prediction of novel effective combinational treatment of chronic pain in individual patients: A joint white paper of the H2020 QSPainRelief consortium

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Opioids are prescribed widely for chronic pain despite well‐recognised risks and variable long‐term benefit, reflecting the lack of effective alternatives for many patients. Combination therapies offer a promising strategy to enhance efficacy whilst reducing side effects.

‘Talk to Us, Not About Us’: Children's Understandings and Experiences of Participation in Australian Family Law

open access: yesChild &Family Social Work, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A hive of recent policy and legislative activity in Australian family law has emphasized the importance of children's right to participate in decision‐making following parental separation. Yet a powerful tension persists between supporting children's right to participation and protecting children from parental conflict.
