Scientists probe Brain's motion sensor to fight dizziness and falls

NCT ID NCT04142697

Summary

This study aims to understand how our brain combines what we see with our sense of balance to figure out how we are moving. Researchers will test 300 people, including healthy individuals and those with balance disorders, using special motion simulators. The goal is to learn how aging and disease affect this process, which could lead to better rehabilitation methods for dizziness and fall prevention.
