Vestibular input to the vestibular nucleus (VN) carries the signal about the head movement (mossy fibers, black).
In contrast to the latter, the Nm does not receive exclusively vestibular input, but inputs from the lateral line as well, possibly providing sufficient input at microgravity.
Things like spinning the horizon line or doing a barrel roll when you're not actually getting the matching vestibular input; even if you did, that's something that makes a lot of people feel pretty sick in the real world, so there's no silver bullet to solve things like that.
Is this true? A. Vestibular input, the inner-ear mechanism that allows a child to sense where the body is to help balance on two feet, is needed to achieve walking, but other mechanisms are even more important, said Dr. Joseph J. Higgins, professor of pediatric neurology at NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Komansky Center for Children's Health.
Current rehabilitation efforts are intended to drive the nervous system to adapt to the disordered vestibular input: physiopathological basics of vestibular rehabilitation are based on mechanisms of vestibular compensation: an appropriately designed virtual reality (VR) experience could greatly increase the rate of compensation in these patients.
The vestibulo-oculomotor diagnostic approach originates from the long-standing clinical experience that, in the absence of visual orientation, cues the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) represents a reliable probe into the peripheral and early central processing stages of vestibular input, as testified by anatomical and neurophysiological findings of powerful oligosynaptic vestibulo-ocular pathways.

The data imply that the VOR pathways receive substantial vestibular inputs from afferents with a middle range of thresholds for electrical stimulation.
This will lead to illusionary tilts, since the vestibular inputs are not confirmed by the other sensory organs, which results in an intersensory conflict.
Simulations also indicated that the comparison of vestibular and climbing-fiber signals across the 100 msec delay must be implemented by a subcellular "eligibility" trace rather than by neural circuits that delay the vestibular inputs to the site of plasticity.
They found that isoflurane induced a high c-Fos cell count (a protein related to neuronal activity) in the vestibular nuclei, where vestibular inputs are integrated with inputs from other sensory systems and the cerebellum for the perception of balance.
In fish, the tendency to orient dorsal side up relies primarily on vestibular inputs, but visual inputs can compensate for a loss of vestibular function [55].
