MicroRNA gene expression in the zebra finch brain
Songbirds such as zebra finches communicate via learned vocalizations (songs) and studies have shown that experiencing song playback triggers complex genomic responses in the zebra finch auditory forebrain. MicroRNAs (miRNAs or miRs) are important regulators of gene expression which may coordinate …

Development of diffusive optical imaging as a tool for studying the neurobiology of birdsong
… optical imaging (DOI) to study the brains of songbirds. We study songbirds because they have a special ability to learn songs and to use them to communicate. We choose to use DOI because it has a unique potential for harmlessly measuring the brain activity of birds as they experience and …
