Vestibular Compensation: New Perspectives

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Proceedings in Life Sciences ((LIFE SCIENCES))

Abstract

The question which arises is: what basic mechanisms are involved, what nervous structures are implicated and what sensory information is needed to attain and maintain vestibular compensation?
