Circuit Neuroscience in Zebrafish
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors summarize background information on the zebrafish as a model in modern systems neuroscience and discuss recent results, highlighting the potential of zebra fish for exhaustive measurements of neuronal activity patterns, for manipulations of defined cell types in vivo and for studies of causal relationships between circuit function and behavior.

Modeling anxiety using adult zebrafish: A conceptual review
TL;DR: This work evaluates established and novel approaches to uncover the molecular substrates, genetic pathways and neural circuits of anxiety using adult zebrafish, and provides a conceptual framework for the wider application of zebra fish and other aquatic models in anxiety research.

TL;DR: This work presents ssEM data for the complete brain of a larval zebrafish at 5.5 days post-fertilization to reduce acquisition time and data management requirements and set the stage for whole-brain structure–function comparisons by co-registering functional reference atlases and in vivo two-photon fluorescence microscopy data from the same specimen.

TL;DR: A novel volume imaging and 3D tracking technique that monitors whole brain neural activity in freely swimming larval zebrafish (Danio rerio) and demonstrates the capability of the system through functional imaging of neural activity during visually evoked and prey capture behaviors in larvalZebrafish.

Whole-brain activity maps reveal stereotyped, distributed networks for visuomotor behavior.
TL;DR: The functional architecture of neural circuits underlying a sensorimotor behavior in a vertebrate brain is revealed, including an elaborate but ordered pattern, with a bilaterally symmetrical organization.

TL;DR: A genetically encoded fluorescent voltage indicator is created, simultaneously optimizing its brightness and membrane localization using the authors' microscopy-guided cell-picking strategy, and is applicable in three model systems.

Control of visually guided behavior by distinct populations of spinal projection neurons.
TL;DR: A new behavioral assay was used to identify visual stimuli that specifically drive basic motor patterns in zebrafish and found that stimuli that drive distinct behaviors activated distinct subsets of projection neurons, consisting of just a few cells.
Continuous shifts in the active set of spinal interneurons during changes in locomotor speed
TL;DR: The activity of pools of spinal interneurons in larval zebrafish is explored and it is concluded that fundamentally different principles may underlie the recruitment of motoneuron and interneuron pools.

TL;DR: Together this “optogenetic toolkit” allows loss-of-function and gain- of-function analyses of neural circuitry at high spatial and temporal resolution in a behaving vertebrate.

Development of the retinofugal projections in the embryonic and larval zebrafish ( Brachydanio rerio )
TL;DR: The retinofugal projection of the zebrafish is described and the issue of projectional exuberance is addressed: i.
Functional imaging reveals rapid development of visual response properties in the zebrafish tectum.
TL;DR: Surprisingly, most of these properties are established soon after dendrite growth and synaptogenesis begin and do not require patterned visual experience or a protracted period of refinement.
