The auditory system is a complex neural system composed of many
types of neurons connected into networks. One feature that sets the
auditory system apart from other sensory systems, such as
somatosensory or visual systems, is the many stages of neural
processing that occur between the ear in the periphery and the
cerebral cortex. Each stage is composed of specialized types of
neurons connected in specific microcircuits that perform
computations on the information about sound. To understand this
processing, all the tools of neuroscience must be employed. The
proposed text integrates cell biology, synaptic physiology, and
electrophysiology to fully develop the topic, presenting an
overview of the functional anatomy of the central auditory system.
It is organized based on the neuronal connectivity of the central
auditory system, which emphasizes the neurons, their synaptic
organization, and their formation of functional pathways and
microcircuits. The goal of the book is to stimulate research into
the cell biology of the central auditory system and the
characteristics of the specific neurons and connections that are
necessary for normal hearing. Future research on the development of
the central auditory including that employing stem cells will
require such information in order to engineer appropriate
therapeutic approaches.
