One of the things that we try to do in our lab is, we always wonder, “How can we improve clinical vestibular assessment?” What are the questions? What are the things we need to figure out or work out that are not sorted out yet? Dizziness and balance problems are...
I think it’s stronger when you have an interdisciplinary approach. We have a fairly active vestibular balance lab. There are four investigators that collaborate on research experiments.
