The superior colliculus (SC) contains an auditory space map that is shaped by projections
from several subcortical auditory nuclei. Both GABAergic (inhibitory) and excitatory cells …

Projections from auditory cortex (AC) affect how cells in both inferior colliculi (IC) respond to
acoustic stimuli. The large projection from the AC to the ipsilateral IC is usually credited with …

Descending projections from the thalamus and related structures to the midbrain are
evolutionarily highly conserved. However, the basic organization of this auditory …

A GABAergic component has been identified in the projection from the inferior colliculus (IC)
to the medial geniculate body (MG) in cats and rats. We sought to determine if this …

Descending projections from the auditory cortex (AC) terminate in subcortical auditory
centers from the medial geniculate nucleus (MG) to the cochlear nucleus, allowing the AC to …

Experiments in several species have identified direct projections to the medial geniculate
nucleus (MG) from cells in subcollicular auditory nuclei. Moreover, many cochlear nucleus …

The inferior colliculus occupies a central position in ascending and descending auditory
pathways. A substantial proportion of its neurons are GABAergic, and these neurons …

The auditory cortex sends massive projections to the inferior colliculus, but the organization
of this pathway is not yet well understood. Previous work has shown that the corticocollicular …

Ascending projections of the dorsal cochlear nucleus (DCN) target primarily the contralateral
inferior colliculus (IC). In turn, the IC sends bilateral descending projections back to the …

A large injection of a retrograde tracer into the inferior colliculus of guinea pigs labeled two
bands of cells in the ipsilateral auditory cortex: a dense band of cells in layer V and a second …
