Introduction What is the auditory system? – The barn owl – The current model of the auditory system © M. Konishi Caltech FIG. 1. Sound localization pathways in the barn owl. Time (ITD) and intensity (ILD) information are processed in 2 parallel pathways that originate in a bifurcation of the auditory nerve (nVIII) and converge in the inferior colliculus (IC). The IC projects to the forebrain () and tectal (1) sound localization pathways. NM, cochlear nucleus magnocellularis; NA, cochlear nucleus angularis; NL, nucleus laminaris; LLDp, nucleus of the lateral lemniscus pars posterior; ICx, external nucleus of the inferior colliculus; OT, optic tectum; Ov, nucleus ovoidalis; AAr, auditory arcopallium. © Pérez ML et. al 2006

Why experiment with live chicks? – No one has done recording in live chicks previously – Preditor vs. Prey – A chance for comparison Introduction Continued VS. © cdb 2003© english-country-garden
