| 11. | The LSO projects bilaterally to the central nucleus of the inferior colliculus ( ICC ).
|
| 12. | Signals from the retina can also travel directly from the retina to the superior colliculus.
|
| 13. | The superior colliculus and prefrontal cortex also have a major role in awareness of a visual stimulus.
|
| 14. | The trochlear nerve comes out of the posterior surface of the midbrain, below the inferior colliculus.
|
| 15. | This indicates that the inferior colliculus is metabolically more active than many other parts of the brain.
|
| 16. | The LGN also receives some inputs from the optic tectum ( also known as the superior colliculus ).
|
| 17. | The inferior colliculus receives input from both the ipsilateral and contralateral cochlear nucleus and respectively the corresponding ears.
|
| 18. | La Berge provides a model that describes the complex interaction between the superior colliculus and other brain areas.
|
| 19. | Broadly, a functional pattern can be discern which describes a number of layers within the superior colliculus.
|
| 20. | It also projects to the superior colliculus, the suprachiasmatic nucleus, and the nucleus of the optic tract.
