The interplay between spike-time and spike-rate modes in the auditory nerve encodes tone-in-noise threshold
Auditory nerve fibers (ANFs) encode pure tones through two modes of coding, spike time
and spike rate, depending on the tone frequency. In response to a low-frequency tone, ANF …

Mechanisms underlying the temporal precision of sound coding at the inner hair cell ribbon synapse
Our auditory system is capable of perceiving the azimuthal location of a low frequency
sound source with a precision of a few degrees. This requires the auditory system to detect …
