PhD student studying decision-making in larval zebrafish in the Bahl lab, based in the beautiful city of Constance, Germany.

How do brains make decisions when faced with multiple, potentially conflicting cues? In our latest preprint, we show how #zebrafish use an additive strategy and process multiple visual features through anatomically distinct parallel pathways https://t.co/JzYRCPtoGW Thread 👇

Using high-speed video and neural networks, researchers have compared hunting behaviours across five species of larval fish.

The study uncovers both shared strategies and striking differences in how fish move, see, and strike during prey capture.

We are proud to have @_maxcapelle's paper out on bioRxiv! He found that phototactic behavior in #zebrafish switches during #ontogeny🐟🔆Through elegant behavioral dissections, he identifies the navigational strategies related to this transition. https://t.co/QLVAacO0kC Thread 👇

what an experience mentoring my first #Erasmus student ! i definitely learned a lot & am hoping she did as well !

[Bahl Lab @BahlLab]

What's the best way to end your first #Erasmus internship? With cake! (Baked by @syddoingscience). Wishing Kezban lots of luck on her continued journey in science! #BahlLabPeople

excited to share that I am finally an author on a published paper ! I learned so much working with Ilona and everyone in her lab. please go check it out !
