Intrinsic properties link a network model to zebra finch song
Neuronal intrinsic excitability is a mechanism implicated in learning and memory that is distinct from synaptic plasticity. Prior work in songbirds established that intrinsic properties (IPs) of premotor basal-ganglia-projecting neurons (HVC X ) relate to learned song. Here, we find that temporal song structure is related to specific HVC X IPs: HVC X from bi
