Our new paper on the circuit implementation of evidence integration in larval zebrafish is now on bioRxiv!
We are proud to present our new preprint “Correlative light and electron microscopy reveals the fine circuit structure underlying evidence accumulation in larval zebrafish”, just posted on bioRxiv (biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…). (1/10)

🪰 A team of researchers has unveiled the complete connectome of a male fruit fly central nervous system—a seamless map of all the neurons in the brain and nerve cord of a single male fruit fly and the millions of connections between them.

This work would not have been possible without the support of @UniKonstanz, @CBehav, @MPI_animalbehav, @zukunftskolleg, @ERC_Research, @Boehringer, NIH U19, and the #DFG. (7/7)

These results demonstrate how distinct visual features are extracted, processed in parallel, and eventually integrated to guide behavior. This modular and parallel circuit architecture provides a context-flexible solution for transforming sensory input into action. (5/7)

Larval zebrafish follow the direction of whole-field motion #OMR and prefer to swim towards brighter areas #phototaxis. But what happens in the brain when motion goes left, and there is brightness on the right? (1/7)

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 👇

I’m thrilled to share that I’m starting my lab at @MpiBrain in Frankfurt, Germany! 🐠🧠🔬

#Neuroscience, #Zebrafish, #NeuroJobs
We will explore how brain circuits give rise to the computational algorithms animals use to solve real-world problems - using the larval zebrafish as a model.
More soon!

We are proud to have @_maxcapelle'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. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… Thread 👇

I’m a Doctor!!!! 🥳🥳🥳
Last week I passed my PhD viva and still can’t believe it!
A huge thank you to my examiners Colin Akerman and @JohannesLarsch, and my supervisor @RobertHindges ⭐️❤️

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:
Multimodal social context modulates behavior in larval Drosophila
