Abstract
Due to the highly conserved genetics across the central nervous system, the easily probed visual system can act as an endophenotype for assessing neurological function. Here, we describe a psychophysics approach to assess visually driven swimming behavior in the high-throughput zebrafish genetic model system. We use the optomotor response test together with general locomotion behavior to assess neural processing while excluding motor defects related to muscle function.
