Functional Integration of Newborn Neurons in the Zebrafish Optic Tectum

Functional Integration of Newborn Neurons in the Zebrafish Optic Tectum

Neurogenesis persists during adulthood in restricted parts of the vertebrate brain. In the optic tectum (OT) of the zebrafish larva, newborn neurons are continuously added and contribute to visual information processing. Recent studies have started to describe the functional development and fate of...
