cochlear nucleus is located lateral and dorsolateral to the inferior cerebellar peduncles
and is functionally divided into dorsal and ventral parts. It is tonotopically organized,
performs the first stage of central auditory processing, and projects (directly or
indirectly) to higher auditory areas including the superior olivary nuclei, the medial
geniculi, the inferior colliculi, and the auditory cortex.;
