How do brains make decisions when faced with multiple, potentially conflicting cues? In our latest preprint, we show how #zebrafish use an additive strategy and process multiple visual features through anatomically distinct parallel pathways tinyurl.com/mvkn8em9 Thread 👇

We are proud to have @maxcapelle.bsky.social's paper out on bioRxiv! He found that phototactic behavior in #zebrafish switches during #ontogeny🐟🔆 Through elegant behavioral dissections, he identifies the navigational strategies related to this transition. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Thread 👇

The first paper from the lab is out on biorxiv - enjoy reading! Social context and interactions influence our behavioral decisions - the same is true for the little fly larva!

Say hi to @nicobdgas.bsky.social! He successfully completed his bachelor’s thesis, working with @mehaj.bsky.social to standardize patch-clamping in the lab. He investigated spontaneous activity patterns in larval zebrafish Purkinje cells, which inspired him to continue his career in #Neuroscience.
