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,

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 ...

Testosterone affects song modulation during simulated territorial intrusions in male black redstarts (Phoenicurus ochruros) [PDF]
, 2012 Although it has been suggested that testosterone plays an important role in resource allocation for competitive behavior, details of the interplay between testosterone, territorial aggression and signal plasticity are largely unknown.
