Nonlinear Dynamics and the Synthesis of Zebra Finch Song
Behavior emerges as the interaction between a nervous system, a peripheral biomechanical device and the environment. In birdsong production, this observation is particularly important: songbirds are an adequate animal model to unveil how brain structures reconfigure themselves during learning of a complex behavior as song. Therefore, it is important to understand which features of behavior are ...
متن کاملDevelopmental song learning in the zebra finch
Developmental learning (for example, speech acquisition in human infants) takes place early in life but its effects may last the entire lifetime of the individual. Developmental learning is difficult to study because the behavioral changes involved span many time scales: The challenge is to relate the developmental parameters to behavioral changes, which can occur within hours as well as across...
متن کاملProposal to Sequence the Genome of the Zebra Finch ( Taeniopygia guttata ) Submitted to NHGRI by the Zebra Finch Genome Consortium
We enthusiastically advocate the zebra finch, a songbird, as a target of highest priority for whole genome sequencing. The zebra finch is an established research organism with particular relevance to human neuroscience and a proven track record of influential ground breaking discoveries that have informed human biology. Evolutionary considerations, such as distance from other sequenced genomes,...

متن کاملTo a Zebra Finch: How the Brain Cultivates Birdsong
0733 components not targeted by known kinase inhibitors. From the library of screened compounds, Shokat and colleagues identifi ed a molecule (hydroxy-PP) that, though structurally related to a known kinase inhibitor, induced morphological changes distinct from any known kinase inhibitor. What does hydroxy-PP target? An enzyme, called carbonyl reductase 1 (CBR1), that acts on xenobiotics like a...
