This research explores how the brain organizes motor actions into complex sequences, using canaries as a model. By studying their song patterns, the project aims to uncover the neural mechanisms that allow for flexible transitions between actions, which could provide insights into motor control disorders.
Our motor sequences obey syntax rules.
From tying shoes to giving a speech, choosing the next action requires our brain to remember past actions, bridge across many seconds, and apply rules that create hierarchical syntax.
Whereas past studies revealed how primary motor cortex drives actions, we poorly understand the transition mechanisms by which the brain strings actions into hierarchical variable sequences.
The key obstacle is identifying deep hierarchical syntax rules in behavior and in neur…
