Population Coding of Interaural Time Differences in Gerbils and Barn Owls [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...

Deciphering the brain's codes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
The two sensory systems discussed use similar algorithms for the synthesis of the neuronal selectivity for the stimulus that releases a particular behavior, although the neural circuits, the brain sites involved, and even the species are different.

Some investigations into non passive listening [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Our knowledge of the function of the auditory nervous system is based upon a wealth of data obtained, for the most part, in anaesthetised animals. More recently, it has been generally acknowledged that factors such as attention profoundly modulate the ...

Comparison of gain-like properties of eye position signals in inferior colliculus versus auditory cortex of primates

open access: yesFrontiers 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 ...

Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis with bilateral inferior collicular hyperintensity on magnetic resonance imaging brain

open access: yesAnnals 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

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

open access: yes, 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 ...

Microvascular organization of the cat inferior colliculus [PDF]

open access: yesHearing 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.

GABAergic inhibition controls neural gain in inferior colliculus neurons sensitive to interaural time differences [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We investigated the role of GABAergic inhibition on the responses of inferior colliculus (IC) neurons sensitive to interaural time differences (ITDs) in anesthetized guinea pigs.

Integration of locomotion and auditory signals in the mouse inferior colliculus

open access: yeseLife, 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

Impaired Auditory Temporal Selectivity in the Inferior Colliculus of Aged Mongolian Gerbils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Aged humans show severe difficulties in temporal auditory processing tasks (e.g., speech recognition in noise, low-frequency sound localization, gap detection). A degradation of auditory function with age is also evident in experimental animals.
