Example behavioral selectivity in the caudal medial medulla (13). Swallow was initiated by transient infusion of water into the pharynx and laryngeal adduction by mechanical stimulation of the larynx. The top 3 traces are of neurons recorded simultaneously in the ventral caudal medulla. Thin bar beneath PES trace-cough stimulus, thick bar beneath PES trace-swallow stimulus, ThHy – thyrohyoideus muscle EMG, ThPy-thyropharyngeus muscle EMG, GeHy-geniohyoid muscle EMG, ADD-adductor (thyroarytenoid) EMG.
