Complex Acoustical Feature Representation in the Zebra Finch Caudomedial Neostriatum (Ncm)
… to appropriate behavioral responses. In the caudomedial neostriatum (NCM) of the zebra finches, the stimulus selective and contextual (novel vs. familiar) nature of zenk activation as well as results from electrophysiological studies suggest an involvement of this auditory region in complex …

Emerging Auditory Selectivity in the Caudomedial Neostriatum of the Zebra Finch Songbird
… finch songbirds, I have demonstrated that the caudomedial neostriatum (NCM), a telencephalic nucleus in the ascending auditory pathway, exhibits responses that range from unselective to highly selective for species-specific stimuli. Sites demonstrating habituating responses are also found and …

Dynamic Modulation of an Immediate -Early Gene in the Songbird Forebrain
… IEG zenk in regions of the auditory forebrain (caudomedial neostriatum (NCM) and caudomedial hyperstriatum ventrale (CMHV)). Three hours of playback leads to the stimulus-specific habituation of this gene response. Here I show that a brief stimulus (1.5 minutes of song) was sufficient to induce …

Response Modulation by Single Units in the Auditory Neostriatum of Songbirds: Characterization of Responses and Their Relationships to Nuclear Gene Regulation in Adult and Juvenile Zebra Finches
… immediate early gene (IEG) expression in the caudomedial neostriatum (NCM) of songbirds that are at least 30 days of age (d30) (Mello, et al., 1992; Jin & Clayton, 1997). However, when songbirds are raised in isolation, playback of birdsong fails to induce these genes. To assess the function …
