The meeting schedule for the neuroethology GRC is live - come to both the GRS and GRC. Stellar science and opportunity to meet great people in the field. GRC technically has an application process, but we welcome everyone with any neuroscience or behavior background/interests.

Super excited to share the latest paper from my lab in @CurrentBiology: zebra finches have unprecedented fine-control over their vocal muscles, many neurons innervate single muscle fibers! cell.com/current-biology/ful… @about_songbird @neuroethology @SyddanskUni @animal_prattle
One-to-one innervation of vocal muscles allows precise control of birdsong

One-to-one innervation of vocal muscles allows precise control of birdsong

Adam et al. show that the zebra finch vocal motor pool has extremely small motor units, with 13%–17% of motor neurons innervating single syringeal muscle fibers. Together with very low muscle stress,...

Our new paper is out!! We studied a hierarchical pattern (Menzerath's law; ML) in 15 songbirds. ML describes the pattern that the greater the whole, the smaller the parts. (1/5) @SakataJon, Mori, Wada, @BioMcGill authors.elsevier.com/c/1d3Xh…
