• A Moderate Approach to Embodied Cognitive Science (2012, background): “Mirror neurons have been discovered in monkeys (Rizzolatti et al. 1996; Rizzolatti and Sinigaglia 2010), humans (Keysers et al. 2010), and most recently in birds (Prather et al. 2008; Keller and Hahnloser 2009).”

• Corollary discharge across the animal kingdom (2008, unknown): “Evidence for this CD function was recently found in neurons in the high vocal centre (HVC) that fired with the same latency irrespective of whether the bird was actively singing or passively listenin”
