Researchers: Prof James Colebatch (Principal investigator)

Brief description The vestibular (balance) organs are difficult to investigate as they lie deep within bone. Disease of these organs may cause severe vertigo, imbalance and difficulty with vision. This project attempts to build on earlier developments in my laboratory and thereby improve understanding and diagnosis of these disorders. This grant relates to a new form of stimulation which may allow simple assessment of an important part of the vestibular apapratus, the utricle.
