The paper investigates omission responses in rat auditory cortex using extracellular recordings and finds they occur in local field potentials and multiunit activity but not in spiking activity.

The paper examines ITD tuning in the rat inferior colliculus and finds that neural d' correlates better with behavioral performance than mutual information.

The paper shows that temporal patterns learned in one sensory modality can be transferred to another, with distinct neural mechanisms observed in EEG responses.

The paper shows that low-level auditory processing in rats explains beat perception in music through increased firing rates on beats.
