Pioneer of Medical Mycology: In Memory of Prof. Friedrich Staib, MD, DVM
ABSTRACT At the beginning of Friedrich Staib's academic career in the 1950s, medical mycology was a young discipline in Germany. He studied veterinary and human medicine, earning two doctorates. Initially fascinated by the changes in intestinal flora caused by the newly emerging broad‐spectrum antibacterials, i.e., the selection of fungi.

Bilateral organization of the vocal control pathway in the budgerigar, Melopsittacus undulatus
Anatomical and electrophysiological methods were used to map the vocal control nuclei of the budgerigar, Melopsittacus undulatus. Beginning with the motor nucleus of the syrinx, nuclei were located using antidromic stimulation and then injected with ...

Budgerigars have complex sleep structure similar to that of mammals.
Birds and mammals share specialized forms of sleep including slow wave sleep (SWS) and rapid eye movement sleep (REM), raising the question of why and how specialized sleep evolved.

Clinical approach to small psittacines and passerines
Background: The most commonly encountered small avian species in clinical practice are psittacines, such as budgerigars, cockatiels and lovebirds, and passerines, such as finches and canaries. These birds are increasingly presented for veterinary treatment, with owners expecting a high standard of care.

A pathogenic paramyxovirus from a budgerigar (Melopsittacus undulatus)
An outbreak of acute enteritis with high mortality among caged budgerigars (Melopsittacus undulatus) in a bird sanctuary was investigated. An agent with the properties of a paramyxovirus, but distinct from Newcastle disease virus and myxovirus Yucaipa ...
