Our research addresses two questions:
(i) vertebrate embryogenesis-how do signals, non-coding RNAs, and chromatin influence the fate and movement of cells?
(ii) behavior - how do neuropeptides and neural circuits regulate locomotion, sleep, and learning?
We mainly use zebrafish as a model system, because genetic and imaging approaches can be combined to study complex behaviors and developmental processes in a vertebrate.
