The mammalian brain is connected to the ear through corticofugal pathways. These neural
circuits link non-auditory regions of the cerebral cortex like frontal and visual areas with the …

The auditory system has ascending and descending (corticofugal) subsystems. Corticofugal
modulation of subcortical neurons for auditory signal processing is an important auditory …

Corticothalamic (CT) neurons comprise the largest component of the descending sensory
corticofugal pathway, but their contributions to brain function and behavior remain an …

The auditory system consists of the ascending and descending (corticofugal) systems. The
corticofugal system forms multiple feedback loops with the ascending system, so that the …

The axonal projections of the adrenergic system to the neocortex, originating from the locus
coeruleus (LC), form a dense network. These axons release the neuromodulator …

Cortical layers (L) 5 and 6 are populated by intermingled cell-types with distinct inputs and
downstream targets. Here, we made optogenetically guided recordings from L5 corticofugal …

The auditory system consists of the ascending and descending (corticofugal) systems. One
of the major functions of the corticofugal system is the adjustment and improvement of …

The inferior colliculus (IC) is a midbrain hub critical for perceiving complex sounds, such as
speech. In addition to processing ascending inputs from most auditory brainstem nuclei, the …
