A bundle of mechanisms: inner-ear hair-cell mechanotransduction
In the inner ear, the deflection of hair bundles, the sensory organelles of hair cells, activates
mechanically-gated channels (MGCs). Hair bundles monitor orientation of the head, its …

Biomimetic survival hydrodynamics and flow sensing
The fluid mechanics employed by aquatic animals in their escape or attack maneuvers, what
we call survival hydrodynamics, are fascinating because the recorded performance in …

Rapid whole brain imaging of neural activity in freely behaving larval zebrafish (Danio rerio)
The internal brain dynamics that link sensation and action are arguably better studied during
natural animal behaviors. Here, we report on a novel volume imaging and 3D tracking …

The role of hydrodynamics in collective motions of fish schools and bioinspired underwater robots
Collective behaviour defines the lives of many animal species on the Earth. Underwater
swarms span several orders of magnitude in size, from coral larvae and krill to tunas and …

Online state estimation of a fin-actuated underwater robot using artificial lateral line system
X Zheng, W Wang, M **ong… - IEEE Transactions on …, 2020 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
A lateral line system is a flow-responsive organ system, with which fish can effectively sense
the surrounding flow field, thus serving functions in flow-aided fish behaviors. Inspired by …

Rheotaxis revisited: a multi-behavioral and multisensory perspective on how fish orient to flow
Here, we review fish rheotaxis (orientation to flow) with the goal of placing it within a larger
behavioral and multisensory context. Rheotaxis is a flexible behavior that is used by fish in a …

Learning for attitude holding of a robotic fish: An end-to-end approach with sim-to-real transfer
Controlling biomimetic underwater robots in unknown flow fields remains a challenge due to
the strong nonlinearity of the fluid. This article investigates the attitude holding task of a …

Lateral line ablation by ototoxic compounds results in distinct rheotaxis profiles in larval zebrafish
The zebrafish lateral line is an established model for hair cell organ damage, yet few studies
link mechanistic disruptions to changes in biologically relevant behavior. We used larval …

There and back again: development and regeneration of the zebrafish lateral line system
The zebrafish lateral line is a sensory system used to detect changes in water flow. It is
comprised of clusters of mechanosensory hair cells called neuromasts. The lateral line is …
