Vestibulo-ocular responses evoked via bilateral electrical stimulation of the lateral semicircular canalsWangsong Gong
Jenks Vestibular Physiology Laboratory, Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary, Boston, MA 02114, USA
IEEE Trans Biomed Eng 55:2608-19. 2008..However, at least for short-term stimulation such as that studied herein, no inherent advantage in terms of the response time constant ("velocity storage") was found...
Chronic vestibulo-ocular reflexes evoked by a vestibular prosthesisDaniel M Merfeld
Jenks Vestibular Physiology Lab, Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary, Boston, MA 02114, USA
IEEE Trans Biomed Eng 54:1005-15. 2007..This suggests that long-term functional replacement of absent vestibular function is feasible...
Vestibuloocular reflex adaptation investigated with chronic motion-modulated electrical stimulation of semicircular canal afferentsRichard F Lewis
Department of Otolaryngology, Harvard Medical School, Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary, 243 Charles Street, Boston MA 02114, USA
J Neurophysiol 103:1066-79. 2010..These results demonstrate that the brain can adaptively modify the gain, axis, and symmetry of the VOR when provided with chronic motion-modulated electrical stimulation by a canal prosthesis...
Spatial and temporal properties of eye movements produced by electrical stimulation of semicircular canal afferentsRichard F Lewis
Department of Otolaryngology, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA, USA
J Neurophysiol 108:1511-20. 2012..Furthermore, the presence of gravity-dependent effects (dumping, spatial orientation) despite an absence of low-frequency augmentation of the eVOR has not been previously described in any experimental preparation...
Responses evoked by a vestibular implant providing chronic stimulationLara A Thompson
Jenks Vestibular Physiology Laboratory, Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary, Boston, MA, USA
J Vestib Res 22:11-5. 2012..In this review, we provide an overview of our previous and current work directed towards the eventual clinical implementation of an implantable vestibular prosthesis...
Vestibular prosthesis tested in rhesus monkeysRichard F Lewis
Jenks Vestibular Physiology Laboratory, Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary, Department of Otology and Laryngology at the Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02114, USA
Conf Proc IEEE Eng Med Biol Soc 2011:2277-9. 2011....
Vestibular adaptation studied with a prosthetic semicircular canalRichard F Lewis
Department of Otology and Laryngology, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02114, USA
J Vestib Res 12:87-94. 2002..The results provided by this pilot study suggest that it may be feasible to study central adaptation by chronically modifying the afferent vestibular cue with a prosthetic semicircular canal...
Acclimation to chronic constant-rate peripheral stimulation provided by a vestibular prosthesisDaniel M Merfeld
Jenks Vestibular Physiology Lab, Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary, Room 421, 243 Charles Street, Boston, MA 02114, USA
IEEE Trans Biomed Eng 53:2362-72. 2006..In fact, after many such off-to-on or on-to-off transitions, little nystagmus was evoked by turning the stimulation on or off. These findings show that the brain acclimates to constant-rate stimulation...
Adaptation of vestibular tone studied with electrical stimulation of semicircular canal afferentsRichard F Lewis
Jenks Vestibular Physiology Laboratory, Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary, Boston, MA, USA
J Assoc Res Otolaryngol 14:331-40. 2013....
System design and performance of a unilateral horizontal semicircular canal prosthesisWangsong Gong
Department of Otology and Laryngology, Harvard Medical School and the Jenks Vestibular Physiology Laboratory, Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary, Boston 02114, USA
IEEE Trans Biomed Eng 49:175-81. 2002..The experiments also show that the nervous system adapts to the artificial rotational cue provided via electrical stimulation...
