Galvanic vestibular stimulation (GVS) plays an important role in the quest to understand
sensory signal processing in the vestibular system under normal and pathological …

Standing balance relies on the integration of multiple sensory inputs to generate the motor
commands required to stand. Mechanical and sensory perturbations elicit compensatory …

Galvanic vestibular stimulation (GVS) uses the external application of electrical current to
selectively target the vestibular system in humans. Despite its recent popularity for the …

Human standing balance relies on self-motion estimates that are used by the nervous
system to detect unexpected movements and enable corrective responses and adaptations …

The vestibular system is crucial for postural control; however there are considerable
differences in the task dependence and frequency response of vestibular reflexes in …

It has recently been demonstrated that noisy galvanic vestibular stimulation (nGVS)
delivered as imperceptible white noise can improve balance control via the induction of …

The human head-neck system requires continuous stabilization in the presence of gravity
and trunk motion. We investigated contributions of the vestibulocollic reflex (VCR), the …

To maintain stable posture of the head and body during our everyday activities, the brain
integrates information across multiple sensory systems. Here, we examined how the primate …

When cognitive load is elevated during a motor task, cortical inhibition and reaction time are
increased; yet, standing balance control is often unchanged. This disconnect is likely …

The active control of the lumbar musculature provides a stable platform critical for postures
and goal-directed movements. Voluntary and perturbation-evoked motor commands can …
