Skottun " et al . " measured the interaural time difference sensitivity of single neurons in the inferior colliculus, and used these to predict behavioural performance.

The inferior colliculus has three subdivisions : the central nucleus, a dorsal cortex by which it is surrounded, and an external cortex which is located laterally.
23.
The inferior colliculus is the first place where vertically orienting data from the fusiform cells in the dorsal cochlear nucleus can finally synapse with horizontally orienting data.
24.
In the Inferior colliculus, a structure in the bat's midbrain, information from lower in the auditory processing pathway is integrated and sent on to the auditory cortex.
25.
Ventral nuclei of lateral lemniscus help the inferior colliculus ( IC ) decode amplitude modulated sounds by giving both phasic and tonic responses ( short and long notes, respectively ).
26.
The inferior colliculus in turn projects to the medial geniculate nucleus, a part of the thalamus where sound information is relayed to the primary auditory cortex in the temporal lobe.
27.
The fusiform cells of the dorsal cochlear nucleus ( DCN ), which are thought to contribute to localization in elevation, bypass the SOC and project directly to the inferior colliculus.
28.
CI electrode arrays are implanted in the cochlea, ABI electrode arrays stimulate the cochlear nucleus complex in the lower brain stem, and AMIs stimulates auditory neurons in the inferior colliculus.
29.
Opisthotonus can be produced experimentally in animals by transection of the midbrain ( between the superior colliculus and the inferior colliculus ), which results in severing all the corticoreticular fibers.
30.
Most of these inputs terminate in the inferior colliculus, although there are a few small projections that bypass the inferior colliculus and project to the medial geniculate, or other forebrain structures.
