Neural representations of temporally modulated signals in the auditory thalamus of awake primates.

abstract：:1. It was the aim of this study to show that nucleus Z of the cat medulla acts as a relay between the spinal cord and the ventral lateral (VL) nucleus of the motor thalamus. For this purpose, extracellular recordings were made from neurons that were antidromically identified by stimulation in the rostral thalamus, par...
