Linear coding of complex sound spectra by discharge rate by neurons of the medial nucleus of the trapezoidal body (MNTB) and thier inputs

The interaural level difference (ILD) cue to sound location is first encoded in the lateral superior olive (LSO). ILD sensitivity results because the LSO receives excitatory input from the ipsilateral cochlear nucleus and inhibitory input indirectly from the contralateral cochlear nucleus via glycin...
