Habituation in songbirds [PDF]

Neurobiology of Learning and Memory, 2009
Songbirds respond to initial playback of a recorded conspecific song in numerous ways, from changes in gene expression in the brain to changes in overt physical activity. When the same song is presented repeatedly, responses have been observed to habituate at multiple levels: molecular, cellular and organismal.

Contribution of Endocannabinoids to Intrinsic Motivation for Undirected Singing in Adult Zebra Finches

Frontiers in Physiology, 2022
Songbirds, such as zebra finches, spontaneously produce many song renditions for vocal practice even in the absence of apparent recipients throughout their lives.

Triphasic Spike-Timing-Dependent Plasticity Organizes Networks to Produce Robust Sequences of Neural Activity

Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2012
Synfire chains have long been suggested to generate precisely timed sequences of neural activity. Such activity has been linked to numerous neural functions including sensory encoding, cognitive and motor responses.

Lingual articulation in songbirds [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Biology, 2015
Lingual articulation in humans is one of the primary means of vocal tract resonance filtering that produces the characteristic vowel formants of speech. In songbirds, the function of the tongue in song has not been thoroughly examined, although recent research has identified the oropharyngeal-esophageal cavity as a resonance filter that is actively ...

Inhibition of miR-128 Enhances Vocal Sequence Organization in Juvenile Songbirds

Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2022
The molecular mechanisms underlying learned vocal communication are not well characterized. This is a major barrier for developing treatments for conditions affecting social communication, such as autism spectrum disorder (ASD).

Landbird trends in protected areas using time‐to‐event occupancy models

Ecosphere, 2019
Global populations of wildlife are affected by human activity, land cover change, and climate change. Long‐term monitoring programs across large spatial scales are required to understand how these and other factors affect wildlife populations.

In Search for the Avian Trigeminal Magnetic Sensor: Distribution of Peripheral and Central Terminals of Ophthalmic Sensory Neurons in the Night-Migratory Eurasian Blackcap (Sylvia atricapilla)

Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2022
In night-migratory songbirds, neurobiological and behavioral evidence suggest the existence of a magnetic sense associated with the ophthalmic branch of the trigeminal nerve (V1), possibly providing magnetic positional information. Curiously, neither the

Correlative microscopy of densely labeled projection neurons using neural tracers

Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2010
Three-dimensional morphological information about neural microcircuits is of high interest in neuroscience, but acquiring this information remains challenging. A promising new correlative technique for brain imaging is array tomography (Micheva and Smith,
