Excerpt
Recent advances in vertigo and balance research have surpassed the classical investigative approaches to vestibular function and dysfunction. In addition to well-defined lab conditions, novel psychophysical, neurophysiological, functional imaging, and modeling techniques allow researchers to study the vestibular system of animals and humans in different natural environmental contexts. Computational sciences now offer unexpected possibilities for analyzing and modeling big data sets, which, however, demand supportive structures to promote the necessary collaboration and data collection. The DIZZYNET community has responded with imaginative ideas to help the various European expert centers face this challenge together. …
