Neuronal degeneration leading to visual impairment or blindness remains a critical challenge in human health. Unlike humans, ...

Polystyrene nanoparticles are widely used in packaging, but their effects on organisms are unclear. Very little was known ...

A new fully automated in vivo screening system (AISS) has been developed to transform drug evaluation by enabling rapid, ...

Preclinical drug evaluation, especially for cardiotoxicity, is a critical stage in the drug development process.

A novel system that chases larval zebrafish around an arena with predator robots is enabling scientists to understand how these days-old fish quickly learn in the real world. A novel system ...

As a vertebrate, the zebrafish possesses many genes that perform the same or similar functions in mammals and therefore also in humans. Approximately 70 percent of zebrafish genes are also present in ...

New research shows that flame retardant polymers can break down into toxic chemicals, raising concerns about their ...

The Zebrafish Genetic and Phenotyping Core provides expertise and equipment to support your experiments with zebrafish as an in vivo model. The Core can generate zebrafish with mutations in specific ...

One of the predominant systems for genetic screens related to the vasculature of zebrafish was developed by scientist Brant Weinstein (Lawson & Weinstein, 2002). In this system, green fluorescent ...

Our zebrafish labs are heavily involved in education of students and engagement of public. For example, we actively recruit and involve undergraduate students in our research. We encourage students to ...
