The zebrafish visual system has become a paradigmatic preparation for behavioral and
systems neuroscience. Around 40 types of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) serve as matched …

Zebrafish, like all fish species, use sound to learn about their environment. Thus, human-
generated (anthropogenic) sound added to the environment has the potential to disrupt the …

Studying chemosensory processing desires precise chemical cue presentation, behavioral
response monitoring, and large-scale neuronal activity recording. Here we present Fish-on …

Abstract People with Phelan-McDermid Syndrome, caused by mutations in the SHANK3
gene, commonly exhibit reduced responses to sensory stimuli; yet the changes in brain-wide …

Danionella cerebrum has recently been proposed as a promising model to investigate the
structure and function of the adult vertebrate brain, including the development of vocal …

Habituation is a form of learning during which animals stop responding to repetitive stimuli,
and deficits in habituation are characteristic of several psychiatric disorders. Due to technical …

To celebrate its centenary year, Journal of Experimental Biology (JEB) commissioned a
collection of articles examining the past, present and future of experimental biology. This …

Neuronal activities of the human brain responsible for cognitive features have been
theorized through several animal models that exhibited various complementary spatial …

Hearing is a crucial sense in underwater environments for communication, hunting,
attracting mates, and detecting predators. However, the tools currently used to study hearing …

A major cause of human deafness and vestibular dysfunction is permanent loss of the
mechanosensory hair cells of the inner ear. In non-mammalian vertebrates such as …
