Favre-Bulle Group

The Favre-Bulle Group

The group's research focuses on studying the zebrafish brain using advanced imaging techniques, exploring brain-wide dynamics and networks under various environmental conditions

 

 

 

 

Dr Favre-Bulle focuses on the noradrenergic system in zebrafish, investigating its pivotal role in modulating sensory functions. Her interdisciplinary approach combines optical physics with neuroscience to advance our understanding of neural circuits and sensory perception mechanisms in zebrafish. Notably, she has engineered imaging systems for conducting optogenetic experiments with real-time feedback in zebrafish models. She has also pioneered the application of optical tweezers to simulate the zebrafish inner-ear's responses to acceleration and hearing, offering novel insights into sensory processing mechanisms.
