Really enjoyed this summer’s lab trip to fire island, NY!

Cool! The motor patterning of a full singing mouse song (100 notes over 10 seconds) can be explained by a linear equation with 3 parameters!
Why is a good question. How do neural circuits produce these accelerating rhythms in diverse animals? convergent evolution?

Reminds me of an older essay about making bricks vs. constructing edifices.

In 2024, I witnessed two incredible celestial phenomena that really took my breath away.. aurora borealis and total solar eclipse.

Two singing mice during a vocal interaction. What is going on in their little brains as they listen, prepare, and respond back? We think it's similar to what is going on in yours during a conversation. We are studying the neural mechanisms underlying this behavior at a cellular and circuit level.

Timely article on the unusual effectiveness of non-model organisms in neuroscience! Adding one of my favorite examples to the list — Alston’s singing mice — remarkable among rodents for their prodigious vocal abilities!
