Auditory pathway in the rat brainstem (simplified). The auditory nerve carries signals from the cochlea into the cochlear nucleus (CN). Signals from the CN travel to the superior olivary complex, consisting of important nuclei such as lateral superior olive (LSO) and medial nucleus of trapezoid body (MNTB). Input from the ipsilateral CN is excitatory (magenta), whereas the input from the contralateral CN is inhibitory via the ipsilateral MNTB (blue).
