The tectum/superior colliculus as the vertebrate solution for spatial sensory integration and action
The superior colliculus, or tectum in the case of non-mammalian vertebrates, is a part of the
brain that registers events in the surrounding space, often through vision and hearing, but …

Zebrafish behavior: opportunities and challenges
MB Orger, GG de Polavieja - Annual review of neuroscience, 2017 - annualreviews.org
A great challenge in neuroscience is understanding how activity in the brain gives rise to
behavior. The zebrafish is an ideal vertebrate model to address this challenge, thanks to the …

A genetically encoded fluorescent sensor for rapid and specific in vivo detection of norepinephrine
Norepinephrine (NE) is a key biogenic monoamine neurotransmitter involved in a wide
range of physiological processes. However, its precise dynamics and regulation remain …

Brain-wide organization of neuronal activity and convergent sensorimotor transformations in larval zebrafish
Simultaneous recordings of large populations of neurons in behaving animals allow detailed
observation of high-dimensional, complex brain activity. However, experimental approaches …

The neural basis of escape behavior in vertebrates
T Branco, P Redgrave - Annual review of neuroscience, 2020 - annualreviews.org
Escape is one of the most studied animal behaviors, and there is a rich normative theory that
links threat properties to evasive actions and their timing. The behavioral principles of …

The zebrafish visual system: from circuits to behavior
JH Bollmann - Annual review of vision science, 2019 - annualreviews.org
Visual stimuli can evoke complex behavioral responses, but the underlying streams of
neural activity in mammalian brains are difficult to follow because of their size. Here, I review …

Mating proximity blinds threat perception
L Cazalé-Debat, L Scheunemann, M Day… - Nature, 2024 - nature.com
Romantic engagement can bias sensory perception. This 'love blindness' reflects a common
behavioural principle across organisms: favouring pursuit of a coveted reward over potential …

Left habenula mediates light-preference behavior in zebrafish via an asymmetrical visual pathway
Habenula (Hb) plays critical roles in emotion-related behaviors through integrating inputs
mainly from the limbic system and basal ganglia. However, Hb also receives inputs from …
