We are excited to share our collaboration with @pheereynolds.bsky.social, Robert Hindges & team on retinal plasticity, now out in Neuron! This work shows how visual experience during early development changes the anatomical and functional properties of amacrine cells and ultimately behavior!
Early visual experience elicits cellular and functional plasticity in the retina and alters behavior
The understanding of experience-dependent plasticity in the vertebrate retina is largely incomplete. Reynolds et al. discovered that raising animals in differently patterned visual environments change...

New research using a virtual reality for zebrafish reveals that the developing biology of the eye is influenced by the surroundings the fish grow up in. @pheereynolds.bsky.social @zwitscherarmin.bsky.social @uni-konstanz.de www.kcl.ac.uk/news/virtual... #Neuroscience #neurodevelopment
Virtual reality study with zebrafish shows surroundings influence developing biology of the eye | King's College London
The environment experienced by young zebrafish influences both the shape and electrical activity of the neurons in the eye, which impacts subsequent behaviour.

The first side project from my PhD is below 🐟 and excitingly, also my first co-corresponding paper too (!!!)

🎉 Congratulations to @pheereynolds.bsky.social winner of the BNA Public Engagement Prize 2024! Phoebe is a visionary in making neuroscience accessible and inclusive for all. bna.org.uk/mediacentre/... #BNAPrizeWinner #NeuroscienceAwards #PublicEngagement #InclusionInSTEM #WomenInSTEM
The 2024 Festive Symposium is underway! @tspiresjones.bsky.social welcomed BNA members and first time delegates to explore this year's theme the 'Resilient Brain'. We look forward to a day full of fascinating #neuroscience.
I’m over the moon to have won the @britishneuro.bsky.social award for Public Engagement 2024 🥳✨🧠 Massive thanks to the panel! This is such an exciting recognition of public engagement work in neuroscience! @kingscollegelondon.bsky.social @devneuro.bsky.social
Looking forward to the @britishneuro.bsky.social festive symposium today with @adorrego.bsky.social 🧠🎄✨
Migration from the Bad Place completed, the whole lab is on 🦋💙! Roll call to follow, in the meantime have a look at our website: lots of pics of pretty neurons & some occasional science content and, importantly, strongly worded opinions about open science and research culture gallianolab.org
