Description: Hormonal regulation of neural plasticity and learning, with a focus on the songbird system.
PhD, University of California at Irvine, 1982 Brain & Cognitive Sciences and Neurobiology & Anatomy Undergraduate Program in Neuroscience Brain & Cognitive Sciences Throughout life, neural systems adapt in response to change. In fact, this neural flexibility is essential for maintaining behavioral stability. For instance, motor systems adapt when feedback from an animal's actions fails to produce the expected outcome. Neural signals reporting the disagreement between actual and expected feedback promote such adaptive behavioral change by prompting a functional re-mapping that can range from simple modifications in the gain of synaptic connections, to wholesale rewiring of well-mapped connections.
