Vocal Premotor Activity in the Superior Colliculus
@article{Sinha2007VocalPA, title={Vocal Premotor Activity in the Superior Colliculus}, author={Shiva R. Sinha and C. Moss}, journal={The Journal of Neuroscience}, year={2007}, volume={27}, pages={110 - 98} }
Chronic neural recordings were taken from the midbrain superior colliculus (SC) of echolocating bats while they were engaged in one of two distinct behavioral tasks: virtual target amplitude discrimination (VTAD) and real oscillating target tracking (ROTT). In the VTAD task, bats used a limited range of sonar call features to discriminate the amplitude category of echoes, whereas in the ROTT task, the bat produced dynamically modulated sonar calls to track a moving target. Newly developed… CONTINUE READING
