The marginal shell of the anteroventral cochlear nucleus is anatomically and physiologically different from its central core. Previous studies suggest that neurons in the marginal shell are well suited to encode the intensity of acoustic stimuli. To investigate the projections of the marginal shell,
## Abstract The response of single units in the cochlear nucleus when confronted with step increments and step decrements in stimulus intensity was studied in the rat using tones that were amplitude modulated with square waves or with pseudorandom noise. Cycle histograms of the responses to tones m
It is well known that experimentally induced cochlear damage produces structural, physiological, and biochemical alterations in neurons of the cochlear nucleus. In contrast, much less is known with respect to the naturally occurring cochlear pathology presented by congenital deafness. The present st
