Detection of synchrony in the activity of auditory nerve fibers by octopus cells of the mammalian cochlear nucleus

The anatomical and biophysical specializations of octopus cells allow them to detect the coincident firing of groups of auditory nerve fibers and to convey the precise timing of that coincidence to their targets. Octopus cells occupy a sharply defined region of the most caudal and dorsal part of the...
