Abstract
Making sense of the brain network and functions from individual neuronal activity is a challenging task. We developed a data analysis pipeline, combining unsupervised learning and supervised learning methods to reveal some of the intricacies of brain function in zebrafish. We were interested in particular to apply it to the senses of hearing, and balance. Using Optical Tweezers, we manipulated optically and individually each of the four ear stones which reside in the inner ear. Consequently, we simulated sound and acceleration in an alive zebrafish with laser beams. I will present the study of behaviour and neural responses to these stimulations.
