Rooted in behaviour

Abstract

Weakly electric fish have been one of the most successful systems in which to study the neural basis of behaviour. Currently, three avenues of research hold particular promise: the combination of field and laboratory studies to improve our understanding of natural electrosensory stimuli and their role in behaviour; the integration of research on natural electrosensory scenes and sensory processing; multidisciplinary approaches to address questions of sensory processing and motor control.
