Title: Lateral line sensory neurons and their central targets

Description: Information captured by the lateral-line sensory system is conveyed to the brain through sensory neurons. There, these neurons make synapses with central neurons that further process the information from the external world. Lateral-line sensory neurons are shown in green (GFP). Their cell bodies form two ganglia (round structures)and their central axons form a bundle that runs rostrocaudally (left-right). Central axons contact the dendrites of central neurons, shown in orange (GFP and Cherry).
