Petrucco L
Eur J Neurosci . 2024 Nov; 60(11):6911-6914. PMID: 39532546
The brain's ability to integrate sensory and motor information allows us to maintain a sense of orientation in space, a process in which head-direction cells play a key role. While...

Prat O, Petrucco L, Stih V, Portugues R
eNeuro . 2024 Jul; 11(7). PMID: 38960706
The cerebellum is a conserved structure of the vertebrate brain involved in the timing and calibration of movements. Its function is supported by the convergence of fibers from granule cells...

A Dehaqani A, Michelon F, Patella P, Petrucco L, Piasini E, Iurilli G
Cell Rep . 2024 Mar; 43(4):114013. PMID: 38551962
Sampling behaviors have sensory consequences that can hinder perceptual stability. In olfaction, sniffing affects early odor encoding, mimicking a sudden change in odor concentration. We examined how the inhalation speed...

Petrucco L, Lavian H, Wu Y, Svara F, Stih V, Portugues R
Nat Neurosci . 2023 Apr; 26(5):765-773. PMID: 37095397
Animals generate neural representations of their heading direction. Notably, in insects, heading direction is topographically represented by the activity of neurons in the central complex. Although head direction cells have...

Xiao Y, Petrucco L, Hoodless L, Portugues R, Czopka T
Nat Neurosci . 2022 Mar; 25(3):280-284. PMID: 35241802
Many oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) do not differentiate to form myelin, suggesting additional roles of this cell population. The zebrafish optic tectum contains OPCs in regions devoid of myelin. Elimination...

Markov D, Petrucco L, Kist A, Portugues R
Nat Commun . 2021 Nov; 12(1):6694. PMID: 34795244
Animals must adapt their behavior to survive in a changing environment. Behavioral adaptations can be evoked by two mechanisms: feedback control and internal-model-based control. Feedback controllers can maintain the sensory...

Claudi F, Tyson A, Petrucco L, Margrie T, Portugues R, Branco T
Elife . 2021 Mar; 10. PMID: 33739286
Three-dimensional (3D) digital brain atlases and high-throughput brain-wide imaging techniques generate large multidimensional datasets that can be registered to a common reference frame. Generating insights from such datasets depends critically...

Stih V, Petrucco L, Kist A, Portugues R
PLoS Comput Biol . 2019 Apr; 15(4):e1006699. PMID: 30958870
We present Stytra, a flexible, open-source software package, written in Python and designed to cover all the general requirements involved in larval zebrafish behavioral experiments. It provides timed stimulus presentation,...

Landi S, Petrucco L, Sicca F, Ratto G
Front Mol Neurosci . 2019 Jan; 11:458. PMID: 30666185
Impairments of the dialog between excitation and inhibition (E/I) is commonly associated to neuropsychiatric disorders like autism, bipolar disorders and epilepsy. Moderate levels of hyperexcitability can lead to mild alterations...
