An oblique image transfer trick enables microscopy at high voxel rate up to 4 mmΒ³ FOV. Danionella becomes the first adult vertebrate undergoing brain-wide volumetric imaging. Outstanding vertebrates who did it: Terry Herreraπ π©, JΓΆrg Henninger, Lars Richter biorxiv.org/cgi/content/shβ¦
Microscale to macroscale: Every brain recording implies subsampling, be it local (2P) coarse (fMRI) or sparse (neuropixels). What can subsampling tell us about the whole brain state and how do the approaches differ? We pitch cells vs. voxels in Danionella: nature.com/articles/s4146β¦

Tiny D. cerebrum produce super-loud clicks and now Antonia Groneberg Benjamin Judkewitz & co reveal how the cartilage hammers that hit the swim bladder develop. In addition, even 6-week-old fish click at full speed; they don't need to practice journals.biologists.com/jeb/article/22β¦
Issue 16 is closed and issue 17 has opened. journals.biologists.com/jeb/issue/227/β¦ The cover by Antonia Groneberg Benjamin Judkewitz show a male (bottom) and female (top) tiny transparent and exquisite Danionella cerebrum fish. The males produce incredibly loud clicks for their size.
