The paper validates an optogenetic approach in zebrafish to study fatigable muscle weakness and NMJ function in CMS models, linking behavior, electrophysiology, and genetics.

The paper models how changes in ion currents during zebrafish development affect primary motoneuron firing properties and locomotor activity.

This study maps the connectivity of dI3 neurons across cervical and lumbar spinal cord segments to understand their role in motor functions.

The paper investigates how neuromodulators like serotonin and acetylcholine modulate the M-current in zebrafish primary motoneurons during development, showing age-dependent effects on firing properties.

The paper identifies the M-current in larval zebrafish primary motoneurons and shows its developmental role in excitability control.

This study builds and simulates spinal circuit models in developing zebrafish to understand how locomotor movements transition from coiling to swimming.
