Critical neuronal avalanches arise from excitation-inhibition balanced spontaneous activity

Maxime Janbon, Mateo Amortegui, Enrique C. A. Hansen, Sarah Nourin, Virginie Candat, Germán Sumbre, Adrián Ponce‐Alvarez

The paper investigates how excitation-inhibition balance in zebrafish larvae's optic tectum influences neuronal avalanche dynamics, finding critical behavior at balanced or slightly excitatory ratios.

Topological analysis of neuronal assemblies reveals low-rank structure modulated by cholinergic activity

Enrique C. A. Hansen, Nicole Sanderson, Sarah Nourin, Virginie Candat, Carina Curto, Germán Sumbre

The paper uses topological data analysis to study neuronal assemblies in zebrafish optic tectum, finding low-rank structure and cholinergic modulation of their functional role.

Attractor-like circuits improve visual decoding and behavior in zebrafish

Martin Privat, Enrique C. A. Hansen, Thomas Pietri, Emiliano Marachlian, Alejandro Uribe‐Arias, Auriane Duchemin, Virginie Candat, Sarah Nourin, Germán Sumbre

This study shows that attractor-like circuits in zebrafish larvae enhance visual processing and behavior by improving stimulus discrimination and hunting efficiency.
