This study matched physiology and anatomical subregions in the chicken inferior colliculus. We found neural topographies for binaural sound localization cues, but, in contrast to the well‐studied barn owl, there was no distinct differentiation of responses in the different subregions.

Studies of tonotopy based on wave N100 of the auditory evoked field are problematic
There is still dissension as to whether the auditory evoked field (AEF) reflects tonotopy in the auditory cortex. That notwithstanding, particularly the pronounced AEF wave occurring about 100 ms after stimulus onset (N100 m) is increasingly used for the investigation of issues such as cortical reorganization and representation of virtual pitch.

Fabrication and Characterization of PDMS Waveguides for Flexible Optrodes
The demand for optical probes tailored to applications is ever rising for optogenetic research. Specifically, for applications such as the cochlea, transitioning from stiff glass fibers to flexible probes is required, especially for long‐term use. Polydimethylsiloxane with its low Young's modulus can serve as material of choice. Its long‐term usability

Magnetic Force Nanoprobe for Direct Observation of Audio Frequency Tonotopy of Hair Cells
Sound perception via mechano-sensation is a remarkably sensitive and fast transmission process, converting sound as a mechanical input to neural signals in a living organism. Although knowledge of auditory hair cell functions has advanced over the past decades, challenges remain in understanding their biomechanics, partly because of their biophysical ...

Tonotopy in human auditory cortex examined with functional magnetic resonance imaging
Tonotopic organization within the human auditory cortex was investigated with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) using the blood oxygenation level-dependent (BOLD) contrast mechanism. Single-frequency pulsed tones were alternated with no-tone conditions to elicit stimulus-specific functional activity.

Representation of lateralization and tonotopy in primary versus secondary human auditory cortex
Functional MRI was performed to investigate differences in the basic functional organization of the primary and secondary auditory cortex regarding preferred stimulus lateralization and frequency. A modified sparse acquisition scheme was used to spatially map the characteristics of the auditory cortex at the level of individual voxels.
