Vestibular cortex is the portion of the cerebrum which responds to input from the vestibular system.[1]
The location is not well defined, but some research indicates a right hemisphere dominance.[2]
Lesions of the vestibular nucleus impair function.[3]
The "temporo-peri-Sylvian vestibular cortex" (TPSVC) has been proposed as an analog to parietoinsular vestibular cortex found in monkeys.[4]
