The ability to process and perceive sensory stimuli is essential for animals, with audition crucial for communication, pleasure, care for the young, and perceiving threats. The auditory cortex is a key sound processing region that requires the complex interplay of molecular programs, spontaneous activity, and sensory experience for development.
The ability to process and perceive sensory stimuli is an essential function for animals. Among the sensory modalities, audition is crucial for communication, pleasure, care for the young, and perceiving threats. The auditory cortex (ACtx) is a key sound processing region that combines ascending signals from the auditory periphery and inputs from other sensory and non-sensory regions. The development of ACtx is a protracted process starting prenatally and requires the complex interplay of molecular programs, spontaneous activity, and sensory experience. Here, we review the development of thalamic and cortical auditory circuits during pre- and early post-natal periods.
