This study shows that the MAPT P301L mutation causes neuronal network hyperexcitability through subtype-specific tau pathology and altered synaptic transmission.

This paper introduces CaBLAM, a bioluminescent Ca2+ indicator with improved dynamic range and Ca2+ affinity, enabling high-resolution imaging of cellular activity in cultured neurons and in vivo.

This study identifies distinct locomotor strategies in larval zebrafish under light and dark conditions, showing how light and circadian cues influence balance and navigation.

This study shows larval zebrafish adjust their swimming and posture strategies based on light conditions after losing lateral line hair cells, demonstrating multisensory control of elevation.

The paper shows that tau load in specific brainstem neurons predicts balance deficits before cell death in zebrafish.

This study identifies a brainstem circuit in larval zebrafish that converts gravitational signals into vertical navigation by maintaining consistent heading.

The paper identifies molecular signatures and transcription factors that determine functional subtypes of motor neurons in zebrafish, showing their role in fast MN development.

The paper introduces SAMPL, a high-throughput system for measuring posture and locomotion in small animals, demonstrating its use in zebrafish and showing genetic and developmental effects on movement.

The paper introduces Tilt In Place Microscopy (TIPM) to study neural responses to body rotations in larval zebrafish, showing reliable activity changes in vestibulospinal neurons during and after roll tilts.
