Vestibulo-ocular responses to bone conducted vibration

This project is about an entirely new way of clinically evaluating balance function of the inner ear by using bone conducted vibration (BCV). We will make measures of the BCV stimulus in order to specify the stimulus at the receptors, and relate this stimulus to the eye-movement responses it causes. Measuring the exact stimulus and the response will give us a much better understanding of why this stimulus works, allowing us to optimize the clinical tests of balance function.
