It has become widely accepted that humans use contextual information to infer the meaning
of ambiguous acoustic signals. In speech, for example, high-level semantic, syntactic, or …

Recent studies have revealed a correlation between aging-related hearing loss and the
likelihood of developing Alzheimer Disease. However, it is not yet known if the correlation …

The inferior colliculus (IC) is a critical integration center in the auditory pathway. However,
because the inputs to the IC have typically been studied by the use of conventional …

The dorsal (DCIC) and lateral cortices (LCIC) of the inferior colliculus are major targets of the
auditory and non-auditory cortical areas, suggesting a role in complex multimodal …

Sensory processing is frequently conceptualized as a linear flow of information from
peripheral receptors through hierarchically organized brain regions, ultimately reaching the …

Early-life experiences, including maternal deprivation and social isolation during
adolescence, have a profound influence on a range of adult social behaviors. Post-weaning …

Post-mortem neuropathological and in vivo neuroimaging methods have demonstrated the
vulnerability of the inferior colliculus to the sequelae of thiamine deficiency as occurs in …

Descending auditory pathways originate from multiple levels of the auditory system and use
a variety of neurotransmitters, including glutamate, GABA, glycine, acetylcholine, and …

The mammalian inferior colliculus (IC) is massively innervated by multiple descending
projection systems. In addition to a large projection from the auditory cortex (AC) primarily …
