This project examines the neural structure of the songbird brain related to vocal learning, particularly in the HVC region. It combines advanced imaging techniques to map synaptic connections involved in song learning and to explore the neural changes during this process.
Vocal learning in songbirds is a complex sensorimotor behaviour with many established parallels to human speech and language learning.
Here we aim to resolve the neural ultra-structure of a key premotor area in the songbird brain, HVC (proper name). HVC plays a major role in song learning and takes part in both song perception and production.
To understand the neural mechanisms of tutor song memorization and emergence of stereotyped adult song, we plan to map the networks of HVC’s afferent and e…
