Cingulate cortex shapes early postnatal development of social vocalizations

|
By Gurueswar Nagarajan, Denis Matrov, Anna Pearson, Cecil C. Yen
| eLife
eLife Assessment This important study investigates the influence of the cingulate cortex on the development of the social vocalizations of marmoset monkeys by making bilateral lesions of this brain area in neonatal animals. The evidence supporting the authors' claims is convincing. The work will be of broad interest to cognitive neuroscientists, speech and language researchers, and primate neuroscientists.

Cingulate cortex shapes early postnatal development of social vocalizations

| BioRxiv
Abstract The social dynamics of vocal behavior has major implications for social development in humans. We asked whether early life damage to the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC), which is closely associated with socioemotional regulation more broadly, impacts the normal development of vocal expression. The common marmoset provides a unique opportunity to study the developmental trajectory of vocal behavior, and to track the consequences of early brain damage on aspects of social vocalizations.

Cortical projections to the superior colliculus in grey squirrels (Sciurus carolinensis)

|

| Color Research & Application Verified
The superior colliculus is an important midbrain structure involved with integrating information from varying sensory modalities and sending motor signals to produce orienting movements towards environmental stimuli. Because of this role, the superior colliculus receives a multitude of sensory inputs from a wide variety of subcortical and cortical structures.
