Hannah M. Oberle, Alexander N. Ford, Deepak Dileepkumar, Jordyn Czarny, Pierre F. Apostolides
This study investigates the synaptic mechanisms of top-down control in the inferior colliculus using optogenetics and electrophysiology, revealing how descending signals amplify auditory responses through NMDA receptor-dependent summation.
