Now published in Molecular Metabolism, improved by the helpful reviewers! We hope to continue to leverage the #zebrafish to understand the neurometabolic and hormonal regulation of appetite and beyond!

Talks will be live-streamed (and stored) on YouTube, hope to see many of you there. Details on each talk coming soon.

This is a lovely timeline cleanse!
Hayashi et al. demonstrate that human touch-induced pleasurable tickling promotes affinity between rats and human hands. This is accompanied by increased OTR expression in the VMHvl, and blocking the oxytocin signaling inhibits such affinity. Find out more here: www.cell.com/current-biol...

Latest from my lab: we identify and characterize the function of binocular neurons zebrafish larvae use to hunt prey; sciencedirect.com/science/arti.... Congrats to Richard Tian, Gewei Yan and Tommy Lam @tkclam.bsky.social!
Binocular integration of prey stimuli in the zebrafish visual system
Most animals with two eyes combine the inputs to achieve binocular vision, which can serve numerous functions and is particularly useful in hunting pr…

Excited to share new work from my lab, where we image visual brain areas in behaving zebrafish larvae to see how sensory information is converted into hunting, freezing, or escape behaviors; www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...
