Neuro-otology.
The physiology of the vestibulo-ocular reflex, and in particular vestibular compensation, optokinetic nystagmus and after-nystagmus, and visuo-vestibular interaction, is reviewed.  Also covered are advances in neuro-otological examination and reports on peripheral labyrinthine disorders and cases of central vestibular disorders that are used as clinical models for improving our understanding of brainstem circuitry involved in ocular motor control.
