  • The visual systems of vertebrates and insects exhibit considerable similarities. In this Review, Tanaka and Portugues discuss these similarities, focusing primarily on recent works in larval zebrafish and fruitflies and expanding the scope of the comparison from past examinations of this area.

  • In this study, Petrucco, Lavian et al. identify a circuit in the hindbrain of larval zebrafish that persistently encodes heading direction. Neurons of this network, of stereotypical morphology, inhibit each other to support ring attractor dynamics.

  • Animals can adjust their behavior in response to changes in the environment when these changes can be predicted. Here the authors show the role of the cerebellum in zebrafish that change their swimming as they adjust to long-lasting changes in visual feedback

  • Synapse loss is prominent in the cortex in multiple sclerosis (MS). In a cortical MS model, Jafari et al. show that phagocytes remove synapses by engulfment, which is triggered by local calcium accumulations and prevented by blocking colony-stimulating factor 1 signaling.

  • Dragomir et al. use a new decision-making assay in larval zebrafish to show that fish modulate their behavior depending on stimulus strength. A whole-brain imaging functional screen reveals neurons that integrate sensory evidence over the course of seconds.

  • Neural activity is recorded at the cellular level, throughout the brain of larval zebrafish, while the animals interact with a virtual environment and adapt their motor output to changes in visual feedback; this is used to derive candidates of functional elements driving motor learning.

  • Oligodendrocyte precursor cells exist in abundance throughout the brain lifelong, with unclear functions. Xiao et al. show that, in zebrafish, these cells regulate the precise formation of retinal ganglion cell arbors and fine-tune visual processing.

  • A complete larval zebrafish brain is examined and its myelinated axons reconstructed using serial-section electron microscopy, revealing remarkable symmetry and providing a valuable resource.

  • Z-Brain is an atlas of the larval zebrafish brain. It can be combined with pERK-based neural-activity measurements from freely behaving zebrafish to identify brain regions involved in generating behavior.
