Into the Vertebrate Brain

By Kara Cerveny and Steve Wilson, University College London

Similar to the fly eye, neurons from the vertebrate eye project to the brain. In fish and amphibia, the primary visual processing center is called the optic tectum. It not only receives and processes visual information, but it also integrates visual input with somatosensory inputs to initiate appropriate behaviors.

Image: This frontal transverse section of a ~5-day-old zebrafish depicts the path of the optic nerve from the retina to the optic tectum. Retinal ganglion cells are labeled with GFP (false -colored cyan) and a subset of glia and their associated neuropil are immunostained for the glutamine synthetase protein (purple). VIA
