The ability of some animals to dynamically change color to match the brightness of their surroundings is one of nature's great survival tools, allowing flatfish to blend into sandy seabeds, frogs to ...
Using zebrafish larvae as a model organism, researchers investigated the cooperative mechanisms between the eyes and the brain that underlie visual function restoration following optic nerve injury.
When swimming across bright surroundings, zebrafish get pale over tens of minutes. Researchers now identified which cells in the eye and brain control this background adaption. The ability of some ...
This valuable work identifies a subpopulation of neurons in the larval zebrafish pallium that responds differentially to varying threat levels, potentially mediating the categorization of negative ...
A novel system that chases larval zebrafish around an arena with predator robots is enabling scientists to understand how these days-old fish quickly learn in the real world. A novel system developed ...
