Vestibular inputs activate neurons in the tangential nucleus (TAN). TAN neurons project to neurons in the nucleus of the medial longitudinal fasciculus (nMLF) on the contralateral side. The axons of the nMLF neurons descend to the spinal cord and project to motoneurons that innervate posterior hypaxial muscles (PHMs). Rostral is toward the top. The dashed line shows the midline.
