Inhibition in the auditory brainstem enhances signal representation and regulates gain in complex acoustic environments

Inhibition plays a crucial role in neural signal processing, shaping and limiting responses. In the auditory system, inhibition already modulates second order neurons in the cochlear nucleus, e.g. spherical bushy cells (SBCs). While the physiological basis of inhibition and excitation is well descri...
