Optogenetic interrogation of the zebrafish lateral line reveals brain-wide neural circuits involved in pattern separation Zoology; Neuroscience; Sensory neuroscience

It's finally out! Our paper on optogenetic interrogation of the lateral line: www.cell.com/iscience/ful...
This one involved a lot of sweat and tears, and it was a real tour de force. It was also the last paper we got to write with Jim, so it's a special one (and hence, the tears).

We have a new preprint on bioRxiv from postdoc Delai Huang and colleagues. It's not about peacocks. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

For those interested! #zebrafish

ICYMI… For those interested 🐟

Beautiful time-lapse of the lhx3:tdTomato transgenic #zebrafish by @shcarroll.bsky.social 🧪

“In summary, we found that introducing structural enrichment to our zebrafish facility carried low cost & no detrimental effects for the animals but at the same time benefits were difficult to determine in our readouts as our survival rates already were very high without these measures” From BfR 🇩🇪

Multi-disciplinary PhD featuring some #zebrafish live imaging 🐟

Very useful tool, for those interested! 🧪

We've given away five of these as gifts to very happy recipients! You can see the amount of detail that goes into it from this Instagram reel by @thewildprintstudio.bsky.social.

He’s got my yellow skin tone 😊

Over the next week, @askzebrafish.bsky.social will turn into a glorified 'Finfluencer' with lots of gift ideas from our years searching the internet for all things #zebrafish! #ZebrafishGear

There’s a downloadable movie on the @zfinmod.bsky.social website as well: zfin.org/zf_info/movi...

It is for zebrafish researchers 🤭

Here's the video of zebrafish development from Don Kane and Rolf Karlstrom that was used in the special issue. On the top left hand corner of each odd-numbered page in the issue was a single frame from the timelapse movie. 🧪
