Singing in the Brain
Speaker: Sarah Woolley, PhD, Principal Investigator at Columbia's Zuckerman Institute; Professor and former Chair in the Department of Psychology
The young brain learning to communicate with hearing and voice builds auditory and vocal motor circuits that are functionally coupled to perceive and produce particular sounds. Sarah Woolley has helped decode how the brain interprets vocalizations — and what happens during development when those sounds are disrupted. Her research could shed important light on developmental disorders associated with speech and communication. In this conversation, Dr. Woolley will discuss progress using songbirds to understand how early social experience tunes the auditory system for vocal communication.
Sarah Woolley, PhD is Professor and former Chair in the Department of Psychology. She directs the Communication Neuroscience Laboratory in the Zuckerman Mind Brain Behavior Institute and is a member of the Kavli Institute for Brain Science. Dr. Woolley’s research on the neuroscience of social communication focuses on songbirds to decipher the neural and behavioral mechanisms of vocal learning and communication. Songbirds share with humans the extremely rare capacity to learn communication vocalizations from adult tutors during development. They serve as the principal animal model for understanding how the brain uses early experience to develop of vocal behaviors and auditory perceptual skills for social communication.
This conversation will be moderated by Amy Norovich, a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Bendesky Lab at Columbia University's Zuckerman Institute.
