Whole-Brain Neuroscience in Larval Zebrafish

Explore a comprehensive 54-minute conference talk by Misha B Ahrens on whole-brain neuroscience in larval zebrafish, presented at #ICBS2024 for BIMSA. Delve into the fascinating world of neuronal circuits and their role in animal perception, decision-making, and behavior. Discover how cutting-edge advances in microscopy, protein engineering, and computation have enabled the creation of a system for measuring activity in almost all brain neurons of larval zebrafish during behavior in virtual reality. Learn about the tracking of neuronal correlates for perception, decisions, memory, and action. Gain insights into computational models and perturbation techniques that shed light on the mechanisms by which neurons and non-neuronal cells in the brain perform various functions, allowing animals to navigate and survive challenging environments.
