I was recently sent this article, which is a heartbreaking account of the effects of dizziness and mental health. My thoughts will be on John Balson this week as I attend the Barany conference to discuss how we can improve care for people like him. theguardian.com/tv-and-radio…

Through an @The_MRC CiC project, we made VR-based Ax of sensory integration during balance (inc. sway referencing & eye tracking). Software by @CineonTraining & hardware by @RedChilliPhoto. Loads of neat functions. Updates to follow @Yr_Russo @ExeterBRC youtube.com/watch?v=9kAfbSZv…
