An avian cortical circuit for chunking tutor song syllables into simple vocal-motor units
Young songbirds learn to imitate their parents’ songs. Here, the authors find that, in baby birds, neurons in a brain region at the interface of auditory and motor circuits signal the onsets of song syllables during both tutoring and babbling, suggesting a specific neural mechanism for vocal imitati...

Young songbirds learn to imitate their parents’ songs.
