Where, exactly, does learning happen in the brain? Out today in @nature.com, we identify a synaptic locus of birdsong learning and show that the circuit can be tuned to make birds learn faster - but at a cost. Read on👇 #neuroskyence 🧪 #prattle 💬 #bioacoustics Shareable link: rdcu.be/fiyrS

Our paper just dropped in the Journal of Neuroscience! How does the brain segment continuous audio into distinct units for speech perception? We show that the auditory forebrain actively decodes temporal landmarks to make this happen. www.jneurosci.org/content/earl... #Neuroscience
