Abstrakt: A long-term goal of auditory neuroscience is to elucidate the behavioral ˵division of labor″ within cat auditory cortex and determine the relative contributions that the different auditory fields make to acoustic behaviors. Here we outline some recent work using reversible cooling deactivation to examine sound localization encoding and the functional cartography of cat auditory cortex. These results, when combined with investigations of underlying cerebral connections and neural function, will constrain hierarchical or network theories that best explain processing in auditory cortex.
