Abstract
⺠Afferents are specialized to detect various modalities and intensities of stimulation. ⺠Signals carried by different types of primary afferents converge in the spinal cord. ⺠Central convergence enables combinatorial coding of co-activated inputs. ⺠Spinal output signals may thus encode complex rather than elemental stimulus features.
