The amygdala plays a central role in evaluating the significance of acoustic signals and coordinating the appropriate behavioral responses. To understand how amygdalar responses modulate auditory processing and drive emotional expression, we assessed…
In the mustached bat, delay-tuned neurons respond best to specific delays between the first harmonic frequency modulated (FM) component (FM1; 24-29 kHz) of the emitted biosonar pulse and a higher harmonic FM component in returning echoes (e.g. FM3,…
This study examined responsiveness to acoustic stimuli among neurons of the basolateral amygdala. While recording from single neurons in awake mustached bats (Pteronotus parnellii), we presented a wide range of acoustic stimuli including tonal,…
