【 摘 要 】
Recent advances in imaging tools are inspiring zebrafish researchers to tackle ever more ambitious questions in the neurosciences.Behaviorally fundamental conserved neural networks can now be potentially studied using zebrafish from a brain wide scale to molecular resolution.In this perspective, we offer a roadmap by which a zebrafish researcher can navigate the course from collecting neural activities across the brain associated with a behavior, to unraveling molecular identities and testing the functional relevance of active neurons, in order to reach important conclusions on how neural networks result in behaviors and changes in synaptic connectivity.
