Information processing in the auditory brainstem.
The past year has seen significant advances in our understanding of the structural (circuitry and chemistry of synaptic connections) and functional characteristics of the auditory brainstem. Some of the findings that shed light on the mechanisms underlying complex auditory information processing are highlighted.
