Mueller, K P; Neuhauss, S C F (2010). Behavioral neurobiology: how larval fish orient towards the light. Current Biology, 20(4):R159-R161.
Orientation of animals towards or away from light is a simple behavior commonly found in the animal kingdom. A recent study using zebrafish larvae has revealed the underlying neural logic of this primal choice behavior, by differential use of the retinal ON- and OFF-pathways.
