The vestibular system: The proceedings of a symposium held at the University of Chicago, 1973
Ralph F. Naunton
Growing interest in the anatomy and physiology of the vestibular system has led to a rapid expansion of research in these areas in the past decade. Information on the vestibular system has been presented from time to time in a number of symposia; nevertheless, the proliferation of data has inevitably created an information gap between scientists and clinicians. There is a crucial need for a two-way exchange of information between the scientist-investigators, working in the area of the anatomy and physiology of the vestibular system, and the clinicians who care for patients suffering from disorders of the system.
Recognizing this need, a Symposium on the Vestibular System was organized and held at the University of Chicago in the spring of 1973. The emphasis of this symposium was twofold: first, to provide, by multidisciplinary representation of scientists and clinicians, a body of reviews and current observations on the state-of-the-art of the anatomical,
physiological, and clinical aspects of the vestibular system, and second, to bring scientists and clinicians together on panels for open discussion of subjects of mutual interest.
This volume contains the papers in the order in which they were presented at the symposium, the edited panel discussions and the discussions following individual formal presentations. The discussions reflect the points of view and arguments of the participants and often serve to point out areas worthy of further study. The first section focuses on the ultrastructure of the peripheral organs and the vestibular pathways to the cerebellum, the spinal cord, and the nuclei of the extraocular muscles. The physiologists present basic information on current knowledge of peripheral mechanisms and the functional relations between the vestibular system, cerebellum, oculomotor system, spinal cord and cortex…
