Today's #TraceTuesday comes from Charlie! This trace was recorded towards the start of his PhD, showing spontaneous activity in neurons of the zebrafish lateral line. This spontaneous activity is a key feature during normal development of the zebrafish lateral line and the mammalian cochlea! 🐟🧪📈

Today's #TraceTuesday comes from Nic, again! We have another trace from a retinal ganglion cell. 🦠 The small peak at the start is an artifact (Nic is still learning), but importantly, the big dip in the trace shows a large inward sodium current which is crucial for generating action potentials! 🧪📈
