A balancing act: A three-pronged approach to vestibular assessment [ 2017 - ]

Research Grant

Researchers: Dr Sally Rosengren (Principal investigator)

Brief description Vertigo and imbalance are common and disabling symptoms of vestibular (balance) dysfunction. This project will investigate three aspects of vestibular function: by searching for new balance reflexes, revealing the pattern of vestibular deficits in patients with a common form of vertigo caused by migraine, and exploring the impact of vestibular disease on thinking and memory. This research will improve our understanding of the vestibular system and facilitate the diagnosis of episodic vertigo.
