Newborn brain circuit stabilizes gaze
SMRTR summary
A brain circuit enabling eye rotation during body tilts develops independently of sensory input in newborn vertebrates, contrary to previous assumptions. Research on zebrafish larvae revealed that the vestibulo-ocular reflex matures without visual feedback or gravity-sensing organs, with the neuromuscular junction being the slowest-developing component.
