Symposium on the Interactions of the Auditory and Mauthner Cell Systems; August 9-14, 1992; Montreal, Quebec, Canada

1992年8月在加拿大蒙特利尔举行的题为“听觉和毛特纳细胞系统的相互作用研讨会”的会议是与国际神经行为学学会的年会一起主办的。这次会议首次汇聚了一群国际公认的神经学家，他们致力于研究触发鱼类声学逃避反射的莫特纳神经元的神经生物学，以及听觉系统方面的专家。这次会议加深了人们对这两个主要系统如何通过脑干相互作用和控制感觉运动协调的理解。会议记录将作为主要科学期刊《大脑行为与进化》的特刊发表。

A conference entitled "Symposium on Interactions of the Auditory and Mauthner Cell Systems" held in Montreal, Canada in August, l992 is sponsored in conjunction with the annual meeting of the International Society of Neuroethology. This conference brings together, for the first time, an internationally recognized group of neuroscientists who work on the neurobiology of Mauthner neurons which trigger the acoustic escape reflex in fish and experts on the auditory system. The conference enhances understanding of how these two major systems interact and control sensorimotor coordination by the brainstem. Proceedings of the conference will be published as a special issue of the major scientific journal, BRAIN BEHAVIOR AND EVOLUTION.
