Current research is focused on the organization and adaptation of the vestibular system as a model of motor learning as well as for patient care. Specific projects include: 1) identification of the changes responsible for improved function with recovery from unilateral vestibular loss, 2) understanding the role of vestibular adaptation / compensation in the recovery from vestibular deficits, 3) context specific adaptation, and 4) the efficacy of different vestibular rehabilitation programs in the reduction of symptoms and functional limitations.
