Now out in Cell! Congratulations to all involved, especially @chiarafornetto.bsky.social For a breakdown, see the bluetorial from when we posted the preprint: bsky.app/profile/neur... Funding: @erc.europa.eu @wellcometrust.bsky.social @ukri.org @leverhulme.ac.uk @thelisterinstitute.bsky.social

Excited to share our paper now published in Cell! 'Zebrafish use spectral information to suppress the visual background' Huge thanks to @neurofishh.bsky.social & @teuler.bsky.social @cellpress.bsky.social @cp-cell.bsky.social 👇🏻 www.cell.com/cell/fulltex...

Super excited to have received a @hfspo.bsky.social grant with with @neurofishh.bsky.social for our proposal: Eyes inside out: Visual coding without a multilayered retina in squid and worms.

Seeking input: A standardized nomenclature for the rods and cones of the vertebrate retina A number of us have been working on a proposal to bring various disconnected naming systems for the vertebrate rods and cones across species into alignment. The basic proposal looks like this:

I recently went to a talk by Tom Baden (@neurofishh.bsky.social). One of the best I've ever seen. It's a radical reinterpretation of what color vision was initially for. And during questions it covered the roles of the green cone and the UV cones (yep, plural) in mouse vision. youtu.be/gzfiUZ2_5pc

For today's #fluorescenceFriday, a transgenic Danionella cerebrum, the world's (second) smallest vertebrate (yep, "stout infantfish" are smaller, but no one has made them glow yet!). Picci by our very own @xinwei-wang.bsky.social

And for this #FluorescenceFriday, here’s the sequel. Froglet of the same line from the Sweeney lab.

Let us all be in awe of the anatomical beauty of #avianretina 🐔 Here is a cross-section of a domestic chick #retina displaying some beautiful #bipolarcell and #doublecone markers. Lets do some #FluorescenceFriday Sample from @neurofishh.bsky.social

Excited to share my new #preprint with @neurofishh.bsky.social and @teuler.bsky.social If you want to know more about cones and behaviour 🐟... 👇🏻 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
