Calcium action potentials in hair cells pattern auditory neuron activity before hearing onset

We found that rat central auditory neurons fire action potentials in a precise sequence of mini-bursts prior to hearing onset. This stereotyped pattern is initiated by hair cells within the cochlea, which trigger brief bursts of action potentials in auditory neurons each time they fire a Ca(2+) spik...
