Long-latency optical responses from the dorsal inferior colliculus of Seba’s fruit bat
We used a novel microendoscope system to record simultaneously optical activity (fluorescence of a calcium indicator dye) and electrical activity...

Differential cell-type dependent brain state modulations of sensory representations in the non-lemniscal mouse inferior colliculus
Sensory responses of the neocortex are strongly influenced by brain state changes. However, it remains unclear whether and how the sensory responses...

The embryonic patterning gene Dbx1 governs the survival of the auditory midbrain via Tcf7l2-Ap2δ transcriptional cascade
At the top of the midbrain is the inferior colliculus (IC), which functions as the major hub for processing auditory information. Despite the...

Descending projections to the auditory midbrain: evolutionary considerations
The mammalian inferior colliculus (IC) is massively innervated by multiple descending projection systems. In addition to a large projection from the...

Oscillatory discharges in the auditory midbrain of the big brown bat contribute to coding of echo delay
Subsequent to his breakthrough discovery of delay-tuned neurons in the bat’s auditory midbrain and cortex, Albert Feng proposed that neural...

Specialization of Neurons with Different Response Patterns in the Mouse Mus musculus Auditory Midbrain and Primary Auditory Cortex during Communication Call Processing
AbstractWriggling call produced by mouse pups when struggling in the nest is one of the mouse early ontogenesis communicative...

Neurophysiological Approaches for Temporal Sound Analysis in the Mouse Auditory Midbrain Neurons
AbstractThe dynamics of the response patterns of the mouse auditory midbrain single neurons in the whole neuronal excitatory receptive field was...

Sensorimotor transformation elicits systematic patterns of activity along the dorsoventral extent of the superior colliculus in the macaque monkey
The superior colliculus (SC) is an excellent substrate to study sensorimotor transformations. To date, the spatial and temporal properties of...

Neuroethology of auditory systems: contributions in memory of Albert S. Feng
Albert (Al) S. Feng (1944 − 1921) was a pioneer in the area of neuroethology of auditory systems. This special issue of the Journal of Comparative...

Time Scale of Adaptation at the Tonal Sequence Processing in the Awake Mice Auditory Cortex Neurons
AbstractThe study was first carried out on stimulus-specific adaptation of neurons in the primary and anterior fields of the awake house mice...

The precedence effect in spatial hearing manifests in cortical neural population responses
BackgroundTo localize sound sources accurately in a reverberant environment, human binaural hearing strongly favors analyzing the initial wave front...

The subcortical and neurochemical organization of the ventral and dorsal attention networks
Attention is a core cognitive function that filters and selects behaviourally relevant information in the environment. The cortical map** of...

Neuroanatomy and Brain Histological Atlas of the South American Plains Vizcacha
Brains could be classified as lissencephalic or gyrencephalic according to the presence of sulci and gyri. In recent years, studies of the physiology... -
Evoked potential study of the inferior collicular response to constant frequency-frequency modulation (CF-FM) sounds in FM and CF-FM bats
The auditory system of echolocating bats is adapted for processing species-specific ultrasonic signals. While FM (frequency modulation) bats are...

Non-invasive auditory brainstem responses to FM sweeps in awake big brown bats
We introduce two EEG techniques, one based on conventional monopolar electrodes and one based on a novel tripolar electrode, to record for the first...

Amplitude- and duration-sensitivity of single-on and double-on neurons to CF-FM stimuli in inferior colliculus of Pratt’s roundleaf bat (Hipposideros pratti)
During hunting, the duration and amplitude of bat’s echolocation sounds co-vary. Our previous studies showed the inferior collicular neurons of...

Cochlear activity in silent cue-target intervals shows a theta-rhythmic pattern and is correlated to attentional alpha and theta modulations
BackgroundA long-standing debate concerns where in the processing hierarchy of the central nervous system (CNS) selective attention takes effect. In...

Large-scale cranial window for in vivo mouse brain imaging utilizing fluoropolymer nanosheet and light-curable resin
Two-photon microscopy enables in vivo imaging of neuronal activity in mammalian brains at high resolution. However, two-photon imaging tools for...

From psychophysiology to brain imaging: forty-five years MMN history of investigating acoustic change sensitivity
Forty-five years have passed since the first publication of the mismatch negativity (MMN) event-related brain potential (ERP) component. The first...

Global dissociation of the posterior amygdala from the rest of the brain during REM sleep
Rapid-eye-movement sleep (REMS) or paradoxical sleep is associated with intense neuronal activity, fluctuations in autonomic control, body paralysis...
