The thalamocortical vestibular system in animals and humans [PDF]
Brain Research Reviews, 2011 The vestibular system provides the brain with sensory signals about three-dimensional head rotations and translations. These signals are important for postural and oculomotor control, as well as for spatial and bodily perception and cognition, and they are subtended by pathways running from the vestibular nuclei to the thalamus, cerebellum and the ...

Challenges to the Vestibular System in Space: How the Brain Responds and Adapts to Microgravity
Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2021 In the next century, flying civilians to space or humans to Mars will no longer be a subject of science fiction. The altered gravitational environment experienced during space flight, as well as that experienced following landing, results in impaired ...

The vestibular implant: A probe in orbit around the human balance system
Journal of Vestibular Research, 2017 The primary goal of the vestibular implant is to restore the vestibular function in patients with a disabling bilateral vestibular loss for whom there is currently no available treatment.

Adaptation to Steady-State Electrical Stimulation of the Vestibular System in Humans
Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 2011 Objectives: Efforts are being made toward the development of a vestibular implant. If such a device is to mimic the physiology of the vestibular system, it must first be capable of restoring a baseline or “rest” activity in the vestibular pathways and then modulating it according to the direction and velocity of

Natural statistics of human head orientation constrain models of vestibular processing
Scientific Reports, 2023 Head orientation relative to gravity determines how gravity-dependent environmental structure is sampled by the visual system, as well as how gravity itself is sampled by the vestibular system.

Beyond balance: The role of the Vestibular system in action recognition
HeliyonBackground: Action recognition is a fundamental aspect of human interaction. This process is mediated by the activation of shared sensorimotor representations during action execution and observation.

Brain Stimulation, 2017 There is strong evidence that the presence of noise can enhance information processing in sensory systems via stochastic resonance (SR).To examine the presence of SR in human vestibulospinal reflex function.Healthy subjects were stimulated with 1 Hz sinusoidal GVS of varying amplitudes (0-1.9 mA).

Spatial disorientation and countermeasure training for next-generation aircraft: a review and recommendations [PDF]
Frontiers in PhysiologySpatial disorientation (SD) is the most common cause of human error in military aircraft incident reports over the last few decades. Vestibular SD typically occurs when the vestibular (balance) system cannot distinguish between acceleration from gravity ...

Visualization of Human Vestibular Aqueduct with Computeraided Serial Section Reconstruction System
Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1988 The computer-aided serial section reconstruction system (SERSERS) was employed to elucidate the entire configuration of the vestibular aqueduct in the human temporal bone. The advantages and the disadvantages of this system are discussed in comparison with several conventional methods such as X-ray visualization, plastic casting and graphic ...
