“…Moreover, methods for imaging and analyzing activity of a large number of neurons are lowering the barrier for discovering new neuromodulatory circuits (Ahrens et al, 2012;Freeman et al, 2014;Keller and Ahrens, 2015;Randlett et al, 2015;Lovett-Barron et al, 2017;Mu et al, 2020). Finally, zebrafish larvae perform several well-characterized behaviors (Budick and O'Malley, 2000;Orger and de Polavieja, 2017), some of which, such as hunting and threat avoidance, are modulated by internal states (De Marco et al, 2014Filosa et al, 2016;Lovett-Barron et al, 2017). The behavioral repertoire of older zebrafish is wider, including for example territoriality, social, and reproductive behavior (Orger and de Polavieja, 2017), but their larger and opticallyopaque brains constitute an obstacle for optical interrogation of neuronal circuits involved in neuromodulation.…”
