Abstract:Binaural cue processing requires central auditory function as damage to auditory cortex and other cortical regions impairs sound localization. However, the mechanisms through which the cerebral cortex supports spatial perception remain unknown. Sound localization cues are initially extracted by brainstem nuclei. However, localizing a sound within the complex auditory scenes that make up every-day acoustic environments requires integrating information across sound frequencies and localization cues.
