	abstract = {<p>Understanding how neural circuits give rise to behavior requires comprehensive knowledge of neuronal morphology, connectivity, and function. Atlas platforms play a critical role in enabling the visualization, exploration, and dissemination of such information. Here, we present FishExplorer, an interactive and expandable community platform designed to integrate and analyze multimodal brain data from larval zebrafish. FishExplorer supports datasets acquired through light microscopy (LM), electron microscopy (EM), and X-ray imaging, all co-registered within a unified spatial coordinate system which enables seamless comparison of neuronal morphologies and synaptic connections. To further assist circuit analysis, FishExplorer includes a suite of tools for querying and visualizing connectivity at the whole-brain scale. By integrating data from recent large-scale EM reconstructions (presented in companion studies), FishExplorer enables researchers to validate circuit models, explore wiring principles, and generate new hypotheses. As a continuously evolving resource, FishExplorer is designed to facilitate collaborative discovery and serve the growing needs of the teleost neuroscience community.</p>

	title = {Whole-brain, all-optical interrogation of neuronal dynamics underlying gut interoception in zebrafish},
	journal = {bioRxiv},
	year = {2025},
	month = {2025 Mar 30},
	abstract = {<p>Internal signals from the body and external signals from the environment are processed by brain-wide circuits to guide behavior. However, the complete brain-wide circuit activity underlying interoception{\textemdash}the perception of bodily signals{\textemdash}and its interactions with sensorimotor circuits remain unclear due to technical barriers to accessing whole-brain activity at the cellular level during organ physiology perturbations. We developed an all-optical system for whole-brain neuronal imaging in behaving larval zebrafish during optical uncaging of gut-targeted nutrients and visuo-motor stimulation. Widespread neural activity throughout the brain encoded nutrient delivery, unfolding on multiple timescales across many specific peripheral and central regions. Evoked activity depended on delivery location and occurred with amino acids and D-glucose, but not L-glucose. Many gut-sensitive neurons also responded to swimming and visual stimuli, with brainstem areas primarily integrating gut and motor signals and midbrain regions integrating gut and visual signals. This platform links body-brain communication studies to brain-wide neural computation in awake, behaving vertebrates.</p>
