Isochronous rhythms: Facilitating song coordination across taxa?

Curr Biol. 2024 Mar 11;34(5):R201-R203. doi: 10.1016/j.cub.2024.01.020.ABSTRACTThe biological expression of isochronous rhythms - rhythms like those produced by a metronome - was once thought to be unique to humans. A new study reports that faster and more isochronous rhythms lead to more successful duets in singing gibbons: isochronous rhythms might be an important component of song coordination across taxa.PMID:38471449 | DOI:10.1016/j.cub.2024.01.020
