This study shows that the zebra finch's HVC region generates learned song syllable sequences independently of major input pathways, relying on local circuits for sustained production.

The paper maps synaptic connectivity in songbird sensorimotor circuits involved in vocal imitation, revealing modular networks and connectivity rules.

The paper investigates synaptic changes in hippocampal neurons after in vivo activity, finding bidirectional modifications in deep and superficial layers.

This study shows that FoxP1 selectively impairs social learning of vocalizations but not imitation in zebra finches, highlighting a specific vulnerability in cultural transmission.

This study shows that CYFIP1 haploinsufficiency in mice causes reduced brain functional connectivity and white matter defects, linking it to neuropsychiatric disorders like Autism and Schizophrenia.
