Cross-Correlation in the Auditory Coincidence Detectors of Owls [PDF]
, 2008 Interaural time difference (ITD) plays a central role in many auditory functions, most importantly in sound localization. The classic model for how ITD is computed was put forth by Jeffress (1948). One of the predictions of the Jeffress model is that the

Visual and eye movement functions of the posterior parietal cortex [PDF]
, 1989 Lesions of the posterior parietal area in humans produce interesting spatial-perceptual and spatial-behavioral deficits. Among the more important deficits observed are loss of spatial memories, problems representing spatial relations in models or ...

Frontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2010 We evaluated to what extent the influence of eye position in the auditory pathway of primates can be described as a gain field. We compared single unit activity in the inferior colliculus (IC), core auditory cortex (A1) and the caudomedial belt (CM ...

Difference in response reliability predicted by STRFs in the cochlear nuclei of barn owls [PDF]
, 2011 The brainstem auditory pathway is obligatory for all aural information. Brainstem auditory neurons must encode the level and timing of sounds, as well as their time-dependent spectral properties, the fine structure and envelope, which are essential for ...

Annals of Indian Academy of Neurology, 2012 Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) is chronic encephalitis occurring after infection with measles virus. An 8-year-old boy presented with progressive behavioral changes, cognitive decline and myoclonic jerks, progressing to a bed bound state over

Microvascular organization of the cat inferior colliculus [PDF]
Hearing Research, 2011 Brain neural activity depends critically on the blood supply to a given structure. The blood supply can differ within and between divisions, which may have functional significance. We analyzed the microvascular organization of the cat inferior colliculus (IC) to determine if the capillary distribution is homogenous throughout.

Population Coding of Interaural Time Differences in Gerbils and Barn Owls [PDF]
, 2010 Interaural time differences (ITDs) are the primary cue for the localization of low-frequency sound sources in the azimuthal plane. For decades, it was assumed that the coding of ITDs in the mammalian brain was similar to that in the avian brain, where ...

Integration of locomotion and auditory signals in the mouse inferior colliculus
eLife, 2020 The inferior colliculus (IC) is the major midbrain auditory integration center, where virtually all ascending auditory inputs converge. Although the IC has been extensively studied for sound processing, little is known about the neural activity of the IC

Noise reduction of coincidence detector output by the inferior colliculus of the barn owl [PDF]
, 2006 A recurring theme in theoretical work is that integration over populations of similarly tuned neurons can reduce neural noise. However, there are relatively few demonstrations of an explicit noise reduction mechanism in a neural network.

Efferent Pathways Modulate Hyperactivity in Inferior Colliculus [PDF]
Journal of Neuroscience, 2010 Animal models have demonstrated that mild hearing loss caused by acoustic trauma results in spontaneous hyperactivity in the central auditory pathways. This hyperactivity has been hypothesized to be involved in the generation of tinnitus, a phantom auditory sensation.
