Adam et al. show that zebra finches need daily singing exercise to build & maintain peak vocal muscle performance, and that lack of exercise alters vocal muscle physiology & reduces attractiveness to females. @_irisadam @CoenElemans nature.com/articles/s4146…

1/ Our newest paper in @NatureComms today. We show that „use it or lose it” also applies to vocal muscles in songbirds. doi.org/10.1038/s41467…

@DanishIAS @KMAttard @DFF_raad @NATsdu Wohoooo!

"Marine primary production in a changing Arctic Ocean" is the headline of DIAS Fellow @KMAttard's project title which just received the Sapere Aude research leader grant from @DFF_raad. 👏👏👏 Read a portrait of Karl Attard and his research area here: dff.dk/forskningsproj…

We are very excited to share our new study on babbling behavior in bat pups. Kudos to my great team - Ahana Fernandez, Lara Burchardt, and Martina Nagy! @mfnberlin @stri_panama @aaas sciencemag.org/news/2021/08/b…

@FarrahNMadison These are mine, I had them built by a carpenter and then equipped them with foam, light etc myself. I'm fairly happy with them 🙂

After days of fiddling, I just fixed a huge problem on my precious muscle rig with a square cm of cling film... Not sure what to think 🤔 😅

Come join our great interdisciplinary and international team!

Sangfugle bliver bare ved og ved med at imponere! nyt studie i @CurrentBiology med støtte fra @Carlsbergfondet @DFF_raad @novonordiskfond sdu.dk/da/nyheder/for…

@cedricboeckx @CoenElemans Thanks you so much! I'm happy you like it :)

@CoenElemans congrats to first-author @_irisadam, whose twitter handle I failed to notice (apologies)

Impressive description re:#birdsong in this @CurrentBiology paper by @CoenElemans et al.: “syringeal muscle motor pool has the highest control resolution possible in the vertebrate nervous system”; innovation “pivotal to expand the acoustic feature space” cell.com/current-biolog…
