The current dominant model of binaural sound localization proposes that the lateral position
of a sound source is determined by the position of maximal activation within an array of …

As an animal navigates its surroundings, the sounds reaching its two ears change in
waveform similarity (interaural correlation) and in time of arrival (interaural time difference …

We report a systematic relationship between sound-frequency tuning and sensitivity to
interaural time delays for neurons in the midbrain nucleus of the inferior colliculus; neurons …

The relative importance of neural temporal and place coding in auditory perception is still a
matter of much debate. The current article is a compilation of viewpoints from leading …

A binaural beat is a beat phenomenon that is generated by the dichotic presentation of two
almost equivalent pure tones but with slightly different frequencies. The brain responses to …

When an animal hears a sound in its environment, there are several important tasks that the
auditory system must try to accomplish. Two major jobs are to determine what it was that …

Human creativity relies on a multitude of cognitive processes, some of which are influenced
by the neurotransmitter dopamine. This suggests that creativity could be enhanced by …

Batra, Ranjan, Shigeyuki Kuwada, and Douglas C. Fitzpatrick. Sensitivity to interaural
temporal disparities of low-and high-frequency neurons in the superior olivary complex. I …

Spatial hearing, and more specifically the ability to localize sounds in space, is one of the
most studied and best understood aspects of hearing. Because there is no coding of …

When two pure tones of slightly different frequencies are delivered simultaneously to the two
ears, is generated a beat whose frequency corresponds to the frequency difference between …
