Adaptation of Binaural Processing in the Adult Brainstem Induced by Ambient Noise [PDF]

, 2012
Interaural differences in stimulus intensity and timing are major cues for sound localization. In mammals, these cues are first processed in the lateral and medial superior olive by interaction of excitatory and inhibitory synaptic inputs from ipsi- and ...
