Michael Long is a Professor in the Department of Neuroscience at NYU Tandon School of Engineering. His research focuses on studying the neural circuits underlying vocal communication and understanding interactive behavior. He employs innovative methods to investigate neural activity across a range of species that exhibit vocal specialties, including parrots, songbirds, singing rodents, and humans. His work aims to unravel the intricate dynamics of speech and social interaction within these diverse biological contexts. Dr. Long emphasizes the comparative mechanisms of communication and how these neural activities reflect broader behavioral patterns in vocal species. His contributions to the field aim at bridging gaps in understanding how complex behaviors are encoded in neural circuits.
