Robustness of neuronal tuning to binaural sound localization cues against age-related loss of inhibitory synaptic inputs.

Sound localization relies on minute differences in the timing and intensity of sound arriving at both ears. Neurons of the lateral superior olive (LSO) in the brainstem process these interaural disparities by precisely detecting excitatory and inhibitory synaptic inputs. Aging generally induces sele...
