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

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

Neuromodulation of spinal networks can improve motor control after spinal cord injury (SCI).
The objectives of this study were to (1) determine whether individuals with chronic paralysis …

Galvanic vestibular stimulation (GVS) uses modulated currents to evoke neuronal activity in
vestibular endorgans in the absence of head motion. GVS is typically used for a …

Different species maintain a particular body orientation in space due to activity of the closed-
loop postural control system. In this review we discuss the role of neurons of descending …

Vestibular information is one of the many sensory signals used to stabilize the body during
locomotion. When locomotor velocity increases, the influence of these signals appears to …

The postural system maintains a specific body orientation and equilibrium during standing
and during locomotion in the presence of many destabilizing factors (external and internal) …

Postural control is critical for locomotion, allowing for gait changes, obstacle avoidance and
navigation of rough terrain. A major problem after spinal cord injury (SCI) is regaining the …

Key points Spinal reflexes are substantial components of the motor control system in all
vertebrates and centrally driven reflex modifications are essential to many behaviours, but …

The dorsal‐side‐up trunk orientation in standing quadrupeds is maintained by the postural
system driven mainly by somatosensory inputs from the limbs. Postural limb reflexes (PLR s) …
