Project

Functional mapping of auditory responses in the zebra finch brain using spin-echo fMRI.

The aim of this project is to develop SE fMRI on the zebra finch brain. By measuring neural responses to different auditory stimuli, this technique should allow us to map the auditory responses in the whole brain and should provide significant insights about auditory selectivity and lateralisation of the zebra finch brain.
