The Songbird Neurogenomics (SoNG) Initiative: Community-based tools and strategies for study of brain gene function and evolution (2008)

Replogle, Kirstin, Arnold, Arthur P, Ball, Gregory F, Band, Mark, Bensch, Staffan, Brenowitz, Eliot A, ...

Abstract Background Songbirds hold great promise for biomedical, environmental and evolutionary research. A complete draft sequence of the zebra finch genome is imminent, yet a need remains for...

Act locally and think globally: Intracerebral testosterone implants induce seasonal-like growth of adult avian song control circuits

Brenowitz, Eliot A., Lent, Karin

There is pronounced seasonal plasticity in the morphology of the neural circuits that regulate song behavior in adult songbirds, primarily in response to changes in plasma testosterone (T) levels....

Rapid seasonal-like regression of the adult avian song control system

Thompson, Christopher K., Bentley, George E., Brenowitz, Eliot A.

We analyzed how rapidly avian song control nuclei regress after testosterone (T) withdrawal. Regression of neuronal attributes resulting from T withdrawal has been observed in several animal models....
