The physics of sound define the corner stones of this communicative framework, which is employed by animal groups from insects to mammals, of which examples of vocalisations are presented. Recording bioacoustic signals allows reproducible identification and documentation of species’ occurrences, but it requires technical prerequisites and behavioural precautions that are summarized. The storing, visualizing and analysing of sound recordings is illustrated and major software tools are shortly outlined. Finally, different approaches to bioacoustic monitoring are described, tips for setting up an acoustic inventory are compiled and a key for procedural advancement and a checklist to successful recording are given. -

Mouse Breeding Colony Management 1. Mouse Reproduction A. General Mouse Information I. the Average Mouse Lives Approximately
Mouse Breeding Colony Management 1. Mouse Reproduction A. General Mouse Information i. The average mouse lives approximately 2.5 years; however, the reproductive life span of mice is significantly shorter at 7-8 months. ii. Most mice reach sexual maturity (males and females) at 4-7 weeks of age. Younger mice generally produce smaller litters and therefore are not typically mated until they reach 6-8 weeks, of age. Mice that have been housed alone or in same-sex pairs will usually not breed successfully if they are older than 6-8 months. iii. The mouse estrous cycle is 4-5 days in length. Mice cycle continuously throughout the year (non-seasonal breeders). Female mice are only receptive to males when they are in estrus. Mating typically occurs at night (lights off). Ovulation occurs 8-12 hours after the onset of estrous. iv. If fertilization occurs, fetuses can be palpated by day 14. v. Gestation in mice is typically 19-21 days (strain dependent). vi. Parturition in mice may last 1-3 hours and frequently occurs at night. Females will go into estrus within 24 hours of parturition and are sexually receptive during this time. vii. Litter size varies among strains, but averages 4-12 pups. Inbred mice tend to have smaller litters than outbred mice. viii. Mice are typically weaned at 21-28 days or at 10g of body weight. The Purdue Animal Care and Use Committee requires that mouse pups be weaned at 21 days unless PACUC approval is given on an approved animal use protocol. See Policy attached. -

MUSICAL SKILLS and PERCEIVED VIVIDNESS of IMAGERY: DIFFERENCES BETWEEN MUSICIANS and UNTRAINED SUBJECTS Di Santo F
Annali della facoltà di Scienze della formazione Università degli studi di Catania 14 (2015), pp. 3-13 ISSN 2038-1328 / EISSN 2039-4934 doi: 10.4420/unict-asdf.14.2015.1 MUSICAL SKILLS AND PERCEIVED VIVIDNESS OF IMAGERY: DIFFERENCES BETWEEN MUSICIANS AND UNTRAINED SUBJECTS di Santo F. Di Nuovo , Anita Angelica 1. Introduction 1.1. Neuropsychology of music Neuropsychological studies have demonstrated that musical processes are represented throughout the brain, involving widely diffuse cerebral areas: i.e., auditory, visual, cognitive, affective, memory, and motor systems 1. This activa - tion involves also mental imagery, intended as reproduction – and original inter - pretation, if requested – of cognitive contents an d/or motor behaviors not imme - diately present in the actual sensory-motor perception, using working memory and rehearsal 2. Kinesthetic imagery, in particular, activates neuronal structures necessary for the execution of the movements and the learning of new motor skills 3. The ability of reconstructing in images some cognitive and emotional fea - tures of memory may be useful to foster the expression of musical activitie s4; in fact, they require the mental representation of musical sounds an d/or movements 1 D.

Behavioral Roles of Oxytocin and Vasopressin
Chapter 3 Behavioral Roles of Oxytocin and Vasopressin Benjamin C. Nephew Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/50422 1. Introduction Arginine Vasopressin (AVP) and oxytocin (OXT) are peptide hormones found in most mammals that have vital physiological and behavioral actions. The major sites of AVP production are the paraventricular (PVN) and supraoptic (SON) nuclei in the hypothalamus, although AVP and its receptors are found in numerous brain nuclei and peripheral tissues. AVP’s physiological roles, which are mediated through both peripheral and central mechanisms, include regulating fluid homeostasis and blood pressure. It is also an important component of the endocrine stress response through its actions in the posterior pituitary gland, where it is a secretagogue of ACTH, stimulating the release of corticosteroid stress hormones and catecholamines from the adrenal glands. The three receptor subtypes for AVP are V1a, V1b, and V2. V2 receptors mediate the fluid regulating actions of AVP in the periphery, where the behavioral and central endocrine functions of AVP are mediated by the V1a and V1b receptors in the brain. These receptors are also involved in the central control of cardiovascular activity. Oxytocin’s major physiological roles are to facilitate uterine contractions during birth through a positive feedback mechanism during the second and third stages of labor, and to mediate milk letdown. In lactating mammalian mothers, OXT initiates milk letdown in the mammary glands, and the release of OXT is stimulated by suckling. OXT has one known receptor which has several alleles. The focus of the present chapter will be on the social behavior functions of both AVP and OXT. -

It is not subject to copyright under 17 USC 105 and is also made available for use under a CC0 license. Abstract Musical behavior is likely as old as our species with song originating as early as 60 million years ago in the primate order. Early singing likely evolved into the music of modern humans via multiple selective events, but efforts to disentangle these influences have been stifled by challenges to precisely define this behavior in a broadly applicable way. Detailed here is a method to quantify the elaborateness of acoustic displays using published spectrograms (n=832 calls) culled from the literature on primate vocalizations. Each spectrogram was scored by five trained analysts via visual assessments along six musically relevant acoustic parameters: tone, interval, transposition, repetition, rhythm, and syllabic variation. -
Neurophysiological Markers of Statistical Learning in Music and Language: Hierarchy, Entropy and Uncertainty
brain sciences Review Neurophysiological Markers of Statistical Learning in Music and Language: Hierarchy, Entropy and Uncertainty Tatsuya Daikoku Department of Neuropsychology, Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences, 04103 Leipzig, Germany; [email protected]; Tel.: +81-5052157012 Received: 10 May 2018; Accepted: 18 June 2018; Published: 19 June 2018 Abstract: Statistical learning (SL) is a method of learning based on the transitional probabilities embedded in sequential phenomena such as music and language. It has been considered an implicit and domain-general mechanism that is innate in the human brain and that functions independently of intention to learn and awareness of what has been learned. SL is an interdisciplinary notion that incorporates information technology, artificial intelligence, musicology, and linguistics, as well as psychology and neuroscience. A body of recent study has suggested that SL can be reflected in neurophysiological responses based on the framework of information theory. This paper reviews a range of work on SL in adults and children that suggests overlapping and independent neural correlations in music and language, and that indicates disability of SL. Furthermore, this article discusses the relationships between the order of transitional probabilities (TPs) (i.e., hierarchy of local statistics) and entropy (i.e., global statistics) regarding SL strategies in human’s brains; claims importance of information-theoretical approaches to understand domain-general, higher-order, and global SL covering both real-world music and language; and proposes promising approaches for the application of therapy and pedagogy from various perspectives of psychology, neuroscience, computational studies, musicology, and linguistics.

Mice in a Labyrinth Show Rapid Learning, Sudden Insight, and Efficient Exploration Matthew Rosenberg1†, Tony Zhang1†, Pietro Perona2*, Markus Meister1*
RESEARCH ARTICLE Mice in a labyrinth show rapid learning, sudden insight, and efficient exploration Matthew Rosenberg1†, Tony Zhang1†, Pietro Perona2*, Markus Meister1* 1Division of Biology and Biological Engineering, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, United States; 2Division of Engineering and Applied Science, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, United States Abstract Animals learn certain complex tasks remarkably fast, sometimes after a single experience. What behavioral algorithms support this efficiency? Many contemporary studies based on two-alternative-forced-choice (2AFC) tasks observe only slow or incomplete learning. As an alternative, we study the unconstrained behavior of mice in a complex labyrinth and measure the dynamics of learning and the behaviors that enable it. A mouse in the labyrinth makes ~2000 navigation decisions per hour. The animal explores the maze, quickly discovers the location of a reward, and executes correct 10-bit choices after only 10 reward experiences — a learning rate 1000-fold higher than in 2AFC experiments. Many mice improve discontinuously from one minute to the next, suggesting moments of sudden insight about the structure of the labyrinth. The underlying search algorithm does not require a global memory of places visited and is largely explained by purely local turning rules. Introduction How can animals or machines acquire the ability for complex behaviors from one or a few experien- ces? Canonical examples include language learning in children, where new words are learned after *For correspondence: just a few instances of their use, or learning to balance a bicycle, where humans progress from com- [email protected] (PP); plete incompetence to near perfection after crashing once or a few times. -
