====== Bound for Specific Sounds: Vocal Predisposition in Animal Communication ====== * **ID:** 20231012155240327-1201 * **Researcher:** Maxime Garcia, Marta Manser * **WP:** Other * **PI:** Marta Manser * **Abstract:** Mechanical constraints imposed by anatomical adaptations are a ubiquitous feature of animal sound production. They can give rise to 'vocal predispositions' (i.e., acoustic structures strictly determined by vocal anatomy). Such predispositions are crucial to the investigation of the cognitive and evolutionary processes underlying acoustic communication in vertebrates, including human speech. * **Publication DOI:** [[https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tics.2020.05.013|https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tics.2020.05.013]] * **Data Type:** null * **Data Format:** null * **Git:** [[None|None]]
