“…Few, if any, projections arise from somatosensory areas outside of the region of S2/PV, nor do projections arise from primary motor cortex (Collins et al, 2005; Fries 1984; Baldwin et al, 2012). In contrast, in rodents such as rats and mice, the superior colliculus receives projections from primary somatosensory and motor areas of cortex, as well as from visual areas (Wise and Jones, 1977; Olavarria and Van Sluyters, 1982; Cadusseau and Roger, 1985; Welker et al, 1988; Harvey and Worthington, 1990; Hofsteter and Ehret, 1992; Inoue et al, 1992; Miyashita et al, 1994; Hoffer et al, 2005; Triplett et al, 2009; Aronoff et al, 2010).…”
