Coincidence detection in the medial superior olive: mechanistic implications of an analysis of input spiking patterns

Coincidence detection by binaural neurons in the medial superior olive underlies sensitivity to interaural time difference (ITD) and interaural correlation (rho). It is unclear whether this process is akin to a counting of individual coinciding spikes, or rather to a correlation of membrane potentia...
