The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Sounds of different frequencies elicit spatially distinct patterns of neural activity within the inferior colliculus aligned to the tonotopic organization of afferent projections. Sound‐evoked neural responses can be visualized in awake mice that express fluorescent Ca2+ sensors.

Superior Colliculus and Visual Spatial Attention [PDF]
Annual Review of Neuroscience, 2013 The superior colliculus (SC) has long been known to be part of the network of brain areas involved in spatial attention, but recent findings have dramatically refined our understanding of its functional role. The SC both implements the motor consequences of attention and plays a crucial role in the process of target selection that precedes movement ...

Noise‐induced reduction and early recovery of superior paraolivary nucleus sound‐offset responses
The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Acoustic over‐exposure transiently disrupts auditory temporal processing in mouse superior paraolivary nucleus neurons. In control conditions, neurons exhibit robust sound‐offset (OFF) responses, which are abolished immediately following noise trauma, indicating impaired temporal encoding.

Vocal Premotor Activity in the Superior Colliculus [PDF]
The Journal of Neuroscience, 2007 Chronic neural recordings were taken from the midbrain superior colliculus (SC) of echolocating bats while they were engaged in one of two distinct behavioral tasks: virtual target amplitude discrimination (VTAD) and real oscillating target tracking (ROTT). In the VTAD task, bats used a limited range of sonar call features to discriminate the amplitude

Attention-related modulation of caudate neurons depends on superior colliculus activity
eLife, 2020 Recent work has implicated the primate basal ganglia in visual perception and attention, in addition to their traditional role in motor control. The basal ganglia, especially the caudate nucleus ‘head’ (CDh) of the striatum, receive indirect anatomical ...

Superior colliculus saccade motor bursts do not dictate movement kinematics
Communications Biology, 2022 Using two different comparisons of varying saccade types, a systematic analysis of saccade-related activity in superior colliculus (SC) neurons demonstrates that SC motor bursts do not dictate the kinematics of rapid eye movements.

CNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 10, October 2026.Whole‐brain input–output mapping reveals that DMDLepRb and DMHLepRb neurons share a highly conserved global connectivity architecture yet exhibit local connection biases: DMDLepRb neurons preferentially integrate arousal and defensive signals, whereas DMHLepRb neurons favor viscerosensory and metabolic inputs, uncovering a principle of conserved global

Whisker-related afferents in superior colliculus
Journal of Neurophysiology, 2016 Rodents use their whiskers to explore the environment, and the superior colliculus is part of the neural circuits that process this sensorimotor information. Cells in the intermediate layers of the superior colliculus integrate trigeminotectal afferents from trigeminal complex and corticotectal afferents from barrel cortex.

Is There a Place for Ipsilesional Eye Patching in Neglect Rehabilitation?
Behavioural Neurology, 1994 Neglect behavior of experimental animals with unilateral posterior cortical lesions improves with the placement of a second lesion in the contralesional superior colliculus or in the intercollicular commissure.

Developmental Neurobiology, Volume 86, Issue 4, October 2026.ABSTRACT Individuals with fetal alcohol spectrum disorders exhibit impaired auditory processing and atypical auditory behaviors across the disorder's spectrum. Although low to moderate prenatal alcohol exposure (PAE) is a prevalent type of exposure, the developmental trajectory of auditory processing deficits resulting from this level of exposure ...
