Inferior colliculus - Open Access .click

Hearing Research, 1995
We examined whether neurons in the inferior colliculus of the mustached bat (Pteronotus parnellii) are combination sensitive, responding to both low- and high-frequency components of the bat's sonar signal. These neurons, previously reported in the thalamus and cortex, analyze sonar target features including distance. Of 82 single units and 36 multiple

Anatomy of the inferior colliculus in rat

Anatomy and Embryology, 1985
This paper defines the pattern of subdivision of the inferior colliculus in rat. It is based on serial sections of brains of albino and hooded rats cut in the frontal, sagittal and horizontal planes using Golgi, Nissl and a combined cell-myelin method.

Mechanisms of defense in the inferior colliculus

Behavioural Brain Research, 1993
The inferior colliculus (IC) is a well known relay station for auditory pathways in the brainstem. In the present review we are suggesting that aversive states are also generated and elaborated in the inferior colliculus and that this structure may be part of a brain system commanding defensive behavior. The evidences presented in this review have been
