The sensory hair cells produce signals, which are carried by the vestibulocochlear nerve ([[Equine Cranial Nerves - Horse Anatomy#Vestibulocochlear Nerve (VIII)|CN VIII]]) first of all through the '''bipolar vestibular ganglion cells'''. Most nerve fibres that have come from the hair cells terminate in the '''vestibular nuclei''', which are located in the fourth ventricle of the [[Equine Brain - Horse Anatomy#Forebrain|cerebral cortex]]. After entering the vestibular nuclei, some of the processes of the nerve fibres divide into '''ascending and descending branches'''. Some processes pass directly into the [[Equine Brain - Horse Anatomy#Hindbrain|cerebellum]].
