A Core Head, Neck, and Neuroanatomy Syllabus for Physical Therapy Student Education

Clinical Anatomy, Volume 39, Issue 4, Page 436-460, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Head, neck, and neuroanatomy are essential components of physical therapy education due to their broad clinical applications. Detailed syllabi exist for medical students, yet none have been developed for physical therapy. This study aimed to produce an International Federation of Associations of Anatomists core head, neck, and neuroanatomy ...

In vivo Probabilistic Structural Atlas of the Inferior and Superior Colliculi, Medial and Lateral Geniculate Nuclei and Superior Olivary Complex in Humans Based on 7 Tesla MRI

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2019
Despite extensive neuroimaging research of primary sensory cortices involved in auditory and visual functions, subcortical structures within these domains, such as the inferior and superior colliculi, the medial and lateral geniculate nuclei and the ...

Sensitivity to interaural time differences in the medial superior olive of a small mammal, the Mexican free-tailed bat [PDF]

, 1998
Neurons in the medial superior olive (MSO) are thought to encode interaural time differences (ITDs), the main binaural cues used for localizing low-frequency sounds in the horizontal plane. The underlying mechanism is supposed to rely on a coincidence of

Conservation of Neuron‐Astrocyte Correlated Activity in Developing Sensory Pathways

Glia, Volume 74, Issue 5, May 2026.
Astrocytes and neurons in the superior colliculus exhibit spatiotemporal correlated activity before eye opening. Each neuronal wave is followed by a calcium wave in astrocytes. Spillover of glutamate activates mGluR5 and mGluR3 in astrocytes. ABSTRACT Neurons in developing sensory organs exhibit prolonged burst firing before the onset of sensory ...

Seeing without a Scene: Neurological Observations on the Origin and Function of the Dorsal Visual Stream

Journal of Intelligence
In all vertebrates, visual signals from each visual field project to the opposite midbrain tectum (called the superior colliculus in mammals). The tectum/colliculus computes visual salience to select targets for context-contingent visually guided ...

Expression of neuronal nitric oxide synthase in the developing superficial layers of the rat superior colliculus

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2004
We investigated the level of expression of neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) in the retinorecipient layers of the rat superior colliculus during early postnatal development. Male and female Lister rats ranging in age between the day of birth (P0) and

Neural Substrates of Attentional Control During Emotional Processing: Evidence From rTMS–fMRI Targeting the Frontal Eye Field

Human Brain Mapping, Volume 47, Issue 7, May 2026.
Using rTMS over the frontal eye field combined with fMRI, we demonstrate that disrupting attentional control slows responses and reduces cortical activity for neutral faces while sparing or amplifying amygdala responses to fearful faces, highlighting a disinhibitory effect of TMS on top‐down control.

“Nothing” Really Matters: What Omission Responses Reveal About the Predictive Brain

European Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 63, Issue 10, May 2026.
Omission paradigms reveal the brain's predictions by removing expected events. We propose these responses arise from the cooperation of two computational styles: Local Regularity Encoding (fast, automatic, local circuits, short temporal windows) and Model‐Based Inference (distributed networks, content‐specific predictions, attention‐dependent, rule ...

The sifting of visual information in the superior colliculus

eLife, 2020
Much of the early visual system is devoted to sifting the visual scene for the few bits of behaviorally relevant information. In the visual cortex of mammals, a hierarchical system of brain areas leads eventually to the selective encoding of important ...
