Periodic envelope fluctuations are a common feature of acoustic communication signals,
and as a result of physical constraints, many natural, nonliving sound sources also produce …

This chapter provides a succinct description of the entire mammalian central auditory system—
an overview, before we embark on the specific, highly detailed chapters which follow. It also …

The distribution and colocalization of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-and glycine-like
immunoreactivity in the cochlear nuclear complex of the guinea pig have been studied to …

Most of our knowledge concerning auditory signal processing is based on the response of
auditory nerve fibers. To a certain degree, these peripheral fibers function as bandpass …

The auditory system, like other sensory systems, comprises multiple neuronal pathways,
each conveying information from the periphery to the forebrain via distinct sets of neurons …

1. Response thresholds and dynamic range properties of neurons in the ventral cochlear
nucleus (VCN) of awake cats were measured by fitting a computational model to rate-level …

1. The role of GABAergic inhibitory inputs onto posteroventral cochlear nucleus (PVCN)
neurons in the anesthetized chinchilla was investigated through iontophoretic application of …

1. We have recorded the responses of neurons in the anteroventral cochlear nucleus
(AVCN) of barbiturate-anesthetized cats to pure tones [either at the unit's best frequency (BF) …

We have investigated responses of the auditory nerve fibres (ANFS) and anteroventral
cochlear nucleus (AVCN) units to narrow band 'single-form ant'stimuli (SFSS). We found that …

Computational models which take into account both linear and nonlinear membrane
properties were developed for stellate, bushy, and fusiform cells of the mammalian cochlear …
