For decades it has been speculated that Parkinson's Disease (PD) is associated with
dysfunction of the vestibular system, especially given that postural instability is one of the …

Connections between the vestibular system and the basal ganglia have been sporadically
studied over the last century. Electrophysiological studies of field potentials in animals have …

For> 20 years, noninvasive transcranial stimulation techniques like repetitive transcranial
magnetic stimulation (rTMS) and direct current stimulation (tDCS) have been used to induce …

Background Noise is typically conceived of as being detrimental for cognitive performance;
however, a recent computational model based on the concepts of stochastic resonance and …

Vestibular dysfunction causes postural instability, which is prevalent in the elderly. We
previously showed that an imperceptible level of noisy galvanic vestibular stimulation …

Objective: To examine the effect of an imperceptible level of galvanic vestibular stimulation
(GVS), delivered as zero-mean current noise (noisy GVS), on postural performance in …

Vestibular information has been traditionally considered as a specialized input for basic
orienting behaviours, such as oculo-motor adjustments, postural control and gaze …

We describe the nature of human behavioral organization, specifically how resting and
active periods are interwoven throughout daily life. Active period durations with physical …

Patients with bilateral vestibulopathy (BV) suffer from persistent postural imbalance, leading
to a marked decrease in quality of life and a higher risk of falls. However, so far, the effective …

Low-level stochastic vestibular stimulation (SVS) has been associated with improved
postural responses in the medio-lateral (ML) direction, but its effect in improving balance …
