Symmetries of the Central Vestibular System: Forming Movements for Gravity and a Three-Dimensional World

Symmetries of the Central Vestibular System: Forming Movements for Gravity and a Three-Dimensional World

Intrinsic dynamics of the central vestibular system (CVS) appear to be at least partly determined by the symmetries of its connections. The CVS contributes to whole-body functions such as upright balance and maintenance of gaze direction. These functions coordinate disparate senses (visual, inertial...
