| Research Abstract |
To understand the neural circuit mechanisms underlying the olfactory behaviors, we use zebrafish as a model system because they allow us to combine genetic and imaging methods. As a result, we identified the neural elements that control several innate behaviors responsive to different odor stimuli.
