I am advised by the Health Research Board (the health research agency of my Department) that it funded a project on Vertigo (related to vestibular rehabilitation) in the Royal College of Surgeons in 2010. I am also advised that it has not received any other applications for funding on this topic since the establishment of its database in 2000.
Health research projects in Ireland, including those related to vertigo, can take place in many settings including universities, hospitals, etc. and be funded from many sources. Information on these research projects, other than those supported by the HRB, are not available in my Department.
