Tan T, Leininger E
J Undergrad Neurosci Educ . 2024 Sep; 22(2):A104-A115. PMID: 39280719
Courses on the neuroscience of sex and gender can support inclusive and integrative neuroscience curricula. Developing and teaching such courses, however, can be intimidating for educators due to the subject's...

Casto K, Leininger E, Tan T
J Undergrad Neurosci Educ . 2024 Feb; 20(2):A191-A206. PMID: 38323054
Offering courses on the neuroscience of sex and gender can help support an inclusive curriculum in neuroscience. At the same time, developing and teaching such courses can be daunting to...

Barkan C, Leininger E, Zornik E
Integr Comp Biol . 2021 May; 61(3):854-866. PMID: 34038510
Across the animal kingdom, the ability to produce communication signals appropriate to social encounters is essential, but how these behaviors are selected and adjusted in a context-dependent manner are poorly...

South K, Klingenberg B, Leininger E
J Exp Biol . 2021 Jan; 224(7). PMID: 33408253
Characterizing sex and species differences in muscle physiology can contribute to a better understanding of proximate mechanisms underlying behavioral evolution. In Xenopus, the laryngeal muscle's ability to contract rapidly and...

Kelley D, Ballagh I, Barkan C, Bendesky A, Elliott T, Evans B, et al.
J Neurosci . 2020 Jan; 40(1):22-36. PMID: 31896561
In many species, vocal communication is essential for coordinating social behaviors including courtship, mating, parenting, rivalry, and alarm signaling. Effective communication requires accurate production, detection, and classification of signals, as...

Kelley D, Elliott T, Evans B, Hall I, Leininger E, Rhodes H, et al.
Genesis . 2017 Jan; 55(1-2). PMID: 28095617
The vertebrate hindbrain includes neural circuits that govern essential functions including breathing, blood pressure and heart rate. Hindbrain circuits also participate in generating rhythmic motor patterns for vocalization. In most...

Leininger E, Kelley D
Cytogenet Genome Res . 2015 Jul; 145(3-4):302-14. PMID: 26138673
The extant species of African clawed frogs (Xenopus and Silurana) provide an opportunity to link the evolution of vocal characters to changes in the responsible cellular and molecular mechanisms. In...

Leininger E, Kitayama K, Kelley D
J Exp Biol . 2015 Mar; 218(Pt 6):849-57. PMID: 25788725
Phylogenetic studies can reveal patterns of evolutionary change, including the gain or loss of elaborate courtship traits in males. Male African clawed frogs generally produce complex and rapid courtship vocalizations,...

Leininger E, Kelley D
Proc Biol Sci . 2013 Feb; 280(1756):20122639. PMID: 23407829
Independent or convergent evolution can underlie phenotypic similarity of derived behavioural characters. Determining the underlying neural and neuromuscular mechanisms sheds light on how these characters arose. One example of evolutionarily...
