A functional organization of binaural responses in the inferior colliculus. 1985

J J Wenstrup, and L S Ross, and G D Pollak

Binaural responses are segregated within an enlarged isofrequency region of the mustache bat's inferior colliculus. In the part of this region containing E-I responses, there is an orderly shift in the sensitivity of unit clusters to interaural intensity disparities, having implications for the representation of auditory space within isofrequency regions of the inferior colliculus.
