How our brain is wired and subsequently generates functional output, ranging from sensing
and locomotion to emotion, decision‐making and learning and memory, remains poorly …

Otoliths are bioinorganic minerals within the inner ear of all bony fishes. They grow
incrementally, laying down alternating protein-rich and mineral-rich bands daily …

In a large-scale screen, we isolated mutants displaying a specific visible phenotype in
embryos or early larvae of the zebrafish, Danio rerio. Males were mutagenized with …

The zebrafish has become one of the most important model organisms to study biologial
processes in vivo. As a vertebrate that has many of the strengths of invertebrate model …

Mechanosensory transduction underlies a wide range of senses, including proprioception,
touch, balance, and hearing. The pivotal element of these senses is a mechanically gated …

Zebrafish embryos and larvae have stage-specific patterns of motility or locomotion. Two
embryonic structures accomplish this behavior: the central nervous system (CNS) and …

Control of behavior in the natural environment where sensory stimuli are abundant requires
superfluous information to be ignored. In part, this is achieved through selective …

Mechanoreceptive hair cells are extremely sensitive to aminoglycoside antibiotics, including
neomycin. Hair cell survival was assessed in larval wild-type zebrafish lateral line …

Neural crest development involves cell-fate specification, proliferation, patterned cell
migration, survival and differentiation. Zebrafish neural crest derivatives include three …

We generated germ line-transmitting transgenic zebrafish that express green fluorescent
protein (GFP) in the cranial motor neurons. This was accomplished by fusing GFP …
