ON-OFF receptive fields in auditory cortex diverge during development and contribute to directional sweep selectivity
Auditory cortex neurons exhibit distinct frequency tuning to sound onset and offset. Here the authors demonstrate that during development ON-OFF receptive fields diverge to occupy adjacent frequency ranges that may underlie their direction selective responses to frequency modulated sweeps.
