2. The VOR(vestibulo-ocular reflex)stabilizes vision by making eye rotations that counterbalance head rotations. The VOR is mediated by brainstem vestibular neurons (Vunits), which receive input from cerebellar Purkinje cells (Pcells).
3. VOR Gain and Integrator Time Constant are Independently Adjustable
