Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The inferior colliculi are a pair of structures located in the midbrain that serve as important integrative centers for auditory information processing. They receive input from the cochlear nuclei and other brainstem auditory centers and then integrate and process this information before transmitting it to the medial geniculate nuclei of the thalamus for further processing and transmission to the auditory cortex.
