Frequency discrimination and stimulus deviance in the inferior colliculus and cochlear nucleus

Front. Neural Circuits, 2013
Auditory neurons that exhibit stimulus-specific adaptation (SSA) decrease their response to common tones while retaining responsiveness to rare ones. We recorded single-unit responses from the inferior colliculus (IC) where SSA is known to occur and we ...

The Evolution of the Pulvinar Complex in Primates and Its Role in the Dorsal and Ventral Streams of Cortical Processing

Vision, 2019
Current evidence supports the view that the visual pulvinar of primates consists of at least five nuclei, with two large nuclei, lateral pulvinar ventrolateral (PLvl) and central lateral nucleus of the inferior pulvinar (PIcl), contributing mainly to the

Classification of frequency response areas in the inferior colliculus reveals continua not discrete classes

Journal of Physiology, 2013
•  Neurons in the auditory midbrain, the inferior colliculus, are selectively sensitive to combinations of sound frequency and level as illustrated by their frequency/level receptive fields. Different receptive field shapes have been described, but we do

How Listing's Law May Emerge from Neural Control of Reactive Saccades [PDF]

, 1995
We hypothesize that Listing's Law emerges as a result of two key properties of the saccadic sensory-motor system: 1) The visual sensory apparatus has a 2-D topology and 2) motor synergists are synchronized.

Decoding neural responses to temporal cues for sound localization [PDF]

, 2013
The activity of sensory neural populations carries information about the environment. This may be extracted from neural activity using different strategies.

Low-threshold potassium currents stabilize IID-sensitivity in the inferior colliculus.

Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2012
The inferior colliculus (IC) is a midbrain nucleus that exhibits sensitivity to differences in interaural time and intensity (ITDs and IIDs) and integrates information from the auditory brainstem to provide an unambiguous representation of sound location

Sparse Codes for Speech Predict Spectrotemporal Receptive Fields in the Inferior Colliculus [PDF]

, 2012
We have developed a sparse mathematical representation of speech that minimizes the number of active model neurons needed to represent typical speech sounds.

Age-related neurochemical changes in the rhesus macaque inferior colliculus.

Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2014
Age-related hearing loss (ARHL) is marked by audiometric hearing deficits that propagate along the auditory pathway. Neurochemical changes as a function of aging have also been identified in neurons along the auditory pathway in both rodents and ...

Auditory neuroscience: Development, transduction and integration [PDF]

, 2000
Hearing underlies our ability to locate sound sources in the environment, our appreciation of music, and our ability to communicate. Participants in the National Academy of Sciences colloquium on Auditory Neuroscience: Development, Transduction, and ...

Logarithmic distributions prove that intrinsic learning is Hebbian

, 2017
In this paper, we present data for the lognormal distributions of spike rates, synaptic weights and intrinsic excitability (gain) for neurons in various brain areas, such as auditory or visual cortex, hippocampus, cerebellum, striatum, midbrain nuclei ...
