Transformation of temporal discharge patterns in a ventral cochlear nucleus stellate cell model: implications for physiological mechanisms.

abstract：:Because smooth-pursuit eye movements (SPEM) can be executed only in the presence of a moving target, it has been difficult to attribute the neuronal activity observed during the execution of these eye movements to either sensory processing or to motor preparation or execution. Previously, we showed that rhesus monkeys...
