And there are some data showing that people who live close to windmills have described some disturbances that they initially couldn't really explain.

And then it turns out that that can stimulate stimulation of the vestibular system, and it's all connected.

I mean, the whole body is connected.

Convenience, we have decided to sub-specialize in ear physiology and surgery versus eye versus liver.

But really, it's all interconnected.

It is fascinating because really vibration is around all of us.

We are exposed to vibration all the time.

Different things do happen at different time points.

And there seems to be this really fascinating connection.

frequency pattern to it.

We already know that circadian rhythm exists even in the inner ear.

We know that certain drugs are more effective if they are given at certain times of the day.

So, yeah, there is something to be studied even more.

But keeping within the realm of what's manageable at this point in time, I will say that von Beckesche

who was a physicist, and he studied the auditory system because he worked for a telephone company, and he was charged by making better devices for communication.

And he said he reached a limit in terms of what he can do as a physicist.

So he needed to understand how the system worked.

And he started performing these experiments in human temporal bones.

So they are...

collected when people die of unrelated causes and they donate their ears for study.
