Functional architecture of motion direction in the mouse superior colliculus
bioRxiv, 2019 Motion vision is important in guiding animal behavior. Both the retina and the visual cortex process object motion in largely unbiased fashion: all directions are represented at all locations in the visual field.

Superior Colliculus Does Play Dice [PDF]
Neuron, 2015 Random is not a word often used in describing nervous system organization and its development. Yet, in this issue of Neuron, Owens et al. (2015) identify stochastic interactions of molecular and activity-dependent forces that can produce heterogeneous retinocollicular maps.

Detectability index measures of binaural masking level difference across populations of inferior colliculus neurons. [PDF]
, 1997 In everyday life we continually need to detect signals against a background of interfering noise (the “cocktail party effect”): a task that is much easier to accomplish using two ears.

Production of 3D printed biomodels of the canine brain for veterinary neuroanatomy teaching
Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.Abstract Teaching neuroanatomy presents multiple challenges to both students and teachers, as it is a subject with highly dense content that commonly causes the development of aversion by students, a phenomenon referred to as “neurophobia,” which has been documented in human and veterinary medicine students.

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

Cervical dystonia: a disorder of the midbrain network for covert attentional orienting.
Frontiers in Neurology, 2014 While the pathogenesis of cervical dystonia remains unknown, recent animal and clinical experimental studies have indicated its probable mechanisms. Abnormal temporal discrimination is a mediational endophenotype of cervical dystonia and informs new ...

Coding of auditory space [PDF]
, 2003 Behavioral, anatomical, and physiological approaches can be integrated in the study of sound localization in barn owls. Space representation in owls provides a useful example for discussion of place and ensemble coding. Selectivity for space is broad and

Show Me the Brain!!: A modern approach to neuroanatomy education
Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.Abstract Show Me the Brain!! (SMtB) is a digital system for interactive graphics that is designed to support instruction in neuroanatomy and neuroscience. It will soon be made open‐source and freely available. SMtB bridges medical and traditional neuroanatomy instruction with the computational systems and representational conventions common in ...
