Baloh, M.D. In 2008, he completed a Masters of Science degree in Health and Healthcare Research from the UM Rackham Graduate School.

Dr. Kerber's research and clinical interests center on the presentation of dizziness, which include a number of disorders that typically involve the cerebellum, brain stem, or peripheral vestibular structures. His previous research with Dr. Baloh led to important discoveries about balance disorders in the elderly, inherited and sporadic ataxia syndromes, and oculomotor physiology. Dr. Kerber's current research focus is using health services research approaches to optimize patient care and health care utilization for dizziness presentations. His work is supported by a National Institutes of Health K23 research grant (K23RR024009). Mentors on this project include Lewis B. Morgenstern, MD, Director of the Stroke Program and Professor of Neurology, Emergency Medicine and Neurosurgery at UM, and A.
