Nature - Using two-photon microscopy with a panoramic virtual reality setup, how head direction cells in larval zebrafish integrate visual landmarks and optic flow to track orientation is revealed.

How top-down connections are shaped by hierarchical inference is explained through developing a deep-generative model. V2-like texture representation is shown to emerge through natural experiences, wh...
