One of the fundamental questions in sensory neuroscience is how do neurochemical signalling molecules (neurotransmitters and neuromodulators) influence the physiology of neuronal ensembles that ...

The dorsal cochlear nucleus (DCN) integrates auditory nerve input with a diverse array of sensory and motor signals processed in circuitry similar to that of the cerebellum. Yet how the DCN ...

Increasing the expression of a protein responsible for maintaining neuron health led to better-than-normal processing of auditory information, according to a new study. The findings open the door to ...
