Coding strategies in the otolith system differ for translational head motion vs. static orientation relative to gravity

The detection of gravito-inertial forces by the otolith system is essential for our sense of balance and accurate perception. To date, however, how this system encodes the self-motion stimuli that are experienced during everyday activities remains unknown. Here, we addressed this fundamental questio...
