Control of human gait stability through foot placement
SM Bruijn, JH Van Dieën - Journal of The Royal Society …, 2018 - royalsocietypublishing.org
During human walking, the centre of mass (CoM) is outside the base of support for most of
the time, which poses a challenge to stabilizing the gait pattern. Nevertheless, most of us are …

Noisy galvanic vestibular stimulation: an emerging treatment option for bilateral vestibulopathy
Patients with bilateral vestibulopathy (BVP) suffer from persistent imbalance during standing
and walking as well as an impaired gaze stabilization during head movements. Disabilities …

Continuous peripersonal tracking accuracy is limited by the speed and phase of locomotion
Recent evidence suggests that perceptual and cognitive functions are codetermined by
rhythmic bodily states. Prior investigations have focused on the cardiac and respiratory …

Electrical stimulation of the peripheral and central vestibular system
Recent studies have established that GVS evokes robust and parallel activation of both
canal and otolith afferents that is significantly different from that evoked by natural head …

Head motion predictability explains activity-dependent suppression of vestibular balance control
H Dietrich, F Heidger, R Schniepp, PR MacNeilage… - Scientific Reports, 2020 - nature.com
Vestibular balance control is dynamically weighted during locomotion. This might result from
a selective suppression of vestibular inputs in favor of a feed-forward balance regulation …
