Auditory experience-dependent cortical circuit shaping for memory formation in bird song learning

Juvenile zebra finches learn to sing by memorizing and imitating their tutor's song, yet neural correlates of the tutor song have not been shown. Here the authors show a small subset of higher-level auditory cortex neurons are sharply tuned to the tutor's song and modulated by inhibition a...

Sumario:Juvenile zebra finches learn to sing by memorizing and imitating their tutor's song, yet neural correlates of the tutor song have not been shown. Here the authors show a small subset of higher-level auditory cortex neurons are sharply tuned to the tutor's song and modulated by inhibition and arousal state.
