Plasticity of the cervico-ocular reflex in health and Disease [PDF]
The cervico-ocular reflex (COR) is an ocular stabilization reflex that is elicited by rotation of the neck. It works in conjunction with the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) and the optokinetic reflex (OKR) in order to prevent visual slip over the ...

A biomechanical study of neck strength and impact dynamics on head and neck injury parameters [PDF]
Traumatic brain injuries (TBI) are considered a silent epidemic. It affects many people, from automobiles to sports to service members. In this study, we employed a musculoskeletal head-neck model to understand the effect of impact locations, characteristics, and neck strength on head and neck injury severity. Three types of impact forces were studied:
