Abstract:
Effectively interpreting each other’s communication sounds is essential for social interactions and survival. My research utilises male-female courtship interactions in mice to study the perception and processing of complex vocal sequences. In my talk I will present recent work based on natural behaviour that highlights the importance of temporal patterns in vocal communication. I will then talk about ongoing work investigating the neuronal substrates supporting vocal sequence processing.
