Anatomical landmarks and study designs. a) Sagittal schematic of zebra finch brain ~1mm from midline. Red boxes indicate regions of interest that were analyzed across studies. A=dNCM, B=vNCM, C=CMM. b) Sagittal schematic of zebra finch brain ~1.7mm from midline. Red boxes indicate regions of interest that were analyzed across studies. A=pHVCS, B=aHVCS. Red boxes are not representative of size of images. Grey zone is primary auditory cortical region Field L. Abbreviations: cerebellum (Cb) and hippocampus (Hp). c) Experimental design for song exposure. Animals from all studies were exposed to various designs of song exposure. White boxes indicate periods of silence and black boxes indicate periods of triplicate song. At the end of each timeline the protein analyzed is included for that study.
