The paper develops models of spinal locomotor networks showing coordinated locomotion arises from cell-type-specific connectivity and speed-selective interneuron recruitment.

This study maps transsynaptic connections in zebrafish neural circuits using a modified trans-Tango method and validates findings with optogenetic experiments.

The paper investigates the cellular and synaptic origins of locomotor rhythmicity at different speeds in larval zebrafish, finding cell-type-specific modes of rhythmogenesis.

Crossbill is an open-access single objective light-sheet microscopy platform that provides high-resolution, affordable volumetric imaging in zebrafish and mouse brain sections.

The paper characterizes central and peripheral innervation patterns of axial motor units in larval zebrafish, identifying three types of secondary motor units and their synaptic connections.

The paper identifies two distinct types of V2a interneurons in larval zebrafish that distribute locomotor control through different functional roles, challenging hierarchical models of spinal circuitry.
