1. In the alert monkey neuronal activity was recorded in the ventro-posterior nucleus (VP) of the thalamus in the dark during sinusoidal rotation over a frequency range from 0.01-1 Hz. 2. From 57 neurons 38 (67%) were activated with rotation to the ipsilateral side (type I) and 19 (33%) to the contr

Recordings from neurons of the vestibular nuclei were performed in alert monkeys. Type I and type II units were identified by rotating the monkey about a vertical axis. Al neurons responded also when only the visual surround was rotated around the stationary monkey. The combination of visual and ves
Single neurons were recorded in the vestibular nuclei of monkeys trained to suppress nystagmus by visual fixation during vestibular or optokinetic stimulation. During optokinetic nystagmus vestibular nuclei neurons exhibit frequency changes. With the suppression of optokinetic nystagmus this neurona
