Serotonergic modulation of motor subspace dynamics drives a sleep-independent quiescent state

Kexin Qi, Yuming Chai, Guodong Tan, Daguang Li, Quan Wen

This study shows that activating serotonergic neurons in the dorsal raphe nucleus of zebrafish induces a quiescent state that differs from sleep, specifically affecting motor activity.

The Geometry and Dimensionality of Brain-wide Activity

Zezhen Wang, Weihao Mai, Yuming Chai, Kexin Qi, Hongtai Ren, Chen Shen, Shiwu Zhang, Guodong Tan, Yu Hu, Quan Wen

The paper analyzes whole-brain calcium activity in zebrafish to show scale-invariant neural activity patterns explained by Euclidean Random Matrix theory.

All-optical interrogation of brain-wide activity in freely swimming larval zebrafish

Yuming Chai, Kexin Qi, Yubin Wu, Daguang Li, Guodong Tan, Yuqi Guo, Jun Chu, Yu Mu, Chen Shen, Quan Wen

The paper introduces an all-optical technique for brain-wide calcium imaging and optogenetic stimulation in larval zebrafish, showing it can trigger behavior and neural activity changes.
