Grant Activity:
The Efferent Vestibular System as a new target to treat balance disorders and motion sickness
Purpose:
The balance system has a remarkable, but untapped capacity for self-repair. An intrinsic feedback mechanism, the Efferent Vestibular System (EVS) is known to play a major role in this self-repair. Surprisingly, we know little about EVS function in animals or humans. We will study the EVS in mice to gain a better understanding of how and when it works. This information will help us develop therapies, based on EVS and self-repair, that treat balance disorders such as dizziness and motion sickness.
