Inhibition within a premotor circuit controls the timing of vocal turn-taking in zebra finches

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Control over when to initiate or withhold vocalizations is essential for vocal turn-taking. Here the authors investigate vocal interactions in zebra finches and show that inhibition within the premotor nucleus HVC plays an important role in the precise ...
