Data from human patients with brain lesions of known location have been compared with data obtained by placing recording electrodes within the brain of experimental animals. A widely accepted interpretation is that as neural signals leave the cochlea, wave 1 is generated by the synchronous firing of nerve impulses in the eighth(auditory) nerve, wave 2 coincides with activity in the cochlear nucleus(...) 1, record 18, English, - cochlear%20nucleus
