    The Natural History of Model Organisms: Neurogenomic insights into the behavioral and vocal development of the zebra finch

    Mark E Hauber, Matthew IM Louder, Simon C Griffith
    The genetic and behavioral diversity of the zebra finch, both in the wild and in captivity, make it well-suited for neuroethological studies of vocal learning, culture, and social bonding.

    FoxP2 isoforms delineate spatiotemporal transcriptional networks for vocal learning in the zebra finch

    Zachary Daniel Burkett, Nancy F Day ... Stephanie A White
    Basal ganglia gene coexpression patterns shift across the sensorimotor critical period for vocal learning.

    Low-dimensional learned feature spaces quantify individual and group differences in vocal repertoires

    Jack Goffinet, Samuel Brudner ... John Pearson
    Modern machine learning methods offer new techniques for analyzing complex vocal behavior like ultrasonic mouse calls and birdsong.

    Transformation of temporal sequences in the zebra finch auditory system

    Yoonseob Lim, Ryan Lagoy ... Timothy J Gardner
    Songbirds discriminate synthetic sounds composed of temporal patterns of clicks, which they transform into distinct ensemble or spatial patterns in successive stages of neural auditory processing.

    Characterization of the finch embryo supports evolutionary conservation of the naive stage of development in amniotes

    Siu-Shan Mak, Cantas Alev ... Raj K Ladher
    Finch embryos are laid at an earlier stage than other avian embryos and contain cells with similar properties to pluripotent embryonic stem cells from mice.

    Fast and accurate annotation of acoustic signals with deep neural networks

    Elsa Steinfath, Adrian Palacios-Muñoz ... Jan Clemens
    DAS is a universal tool for segmenting and identifying acoustic signals in single and multi channel recordings robustly, reliably, and at low latency.

    Motor cortex analogue neurons in songbirds utilize Kv3 channels to generate ultranarrow spikes

    Benjamin M Zemel, Alexander A Nevue ... Henrique von Gersdorff
    Molecular and electrophysiological evidence shows that Kv3 subunits contribute critically to ultrashort action potential waveforms and high-frequency firing in large projection neurons in zebra finch motor nuclei controlling song production and somatic movements.

    Patterns of call communication between group-housed zebra finches change during the breeding cycle

    Lisa F Gill, Wolfgang Goymann ... Manfred Gahr
    Call-based vocal communication of individually recorded zebra finches changes in social groups across reproductive stages and is related with successful egg laying.

    Sexual dimorphism in striatal dopaminergic responses promotes monogamy in social songbirds

    Kirill Tokarev, Julia Hyland Bruno ... Henning U Voss
    Co-evolution of sexually dimorphic reinforcement systems for song can explain the coexistence of the seemingly contradictory traits of gregariousness and monogamy in social songbirds.

    miR-9 regulates basal ganglia-dependent developmental vocal learning and adult vocal performance in songbirds

    Zhimin Shi, Zoe Piccus ... XiaoChing Li
    Gene manipulation combined with behavior analysis reveals a role of miR-9 in modulating basal-ganglia-dependent developmental vocal learning and adult vocal performance via regulating the FOXP1/FOXP2 gene network and dopamine signaling in songbirds.
