Identification of an inhibitory neuron subtype, the L-stellate cell of the cochlear nucleus.

abstract：:Excitatory and inhibitory synapses are the brain's most abundant synapse types. However, little is known about their formation during critical periods of motor skill learning, when sensory experience defines a motor target that animals strive to imitate. In songbirds, we find that exposure to tutor song leads to elimi...
