Stress, the body's natural response to different types of challenges and daily problems, is an inherently harmless state ...

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 ...

Zebrafish (Danio Rerio) have emerged as a powerful bioengineering platform for next-generation drug discovery, offering an unparalleled combination of ...

Researchers have shown that zebrafish can provide genetic baz1b clues to the evolution of social behaviors in humans and domesticated species. Researchers at Queen Mary University of London have shown ...

Research shows how the curved shape of a zebrafish egg sets cell division timing, gene activation, and early cell fate ...

Blinding diseases lead to permanent vision loss by damaging photoreceptor cells, which humans cannot naturally regenerate. While researchers are working on new methods to replace or regenerate these ...

Life begins with a single fertilized cell that gradually transforms into a multicellular organism. This process requires ...

Zebrafish. Humans and zebrafish are more alike than one might think, especially when it comes to embryonic development. In science, zebrafish (Danio rerio) often reveal principles that apply much more ...

We provide you with embryos for your research. Developmental stage of embryos can be timed and coordinated precisely, down to the minute. We can perform male gamete collection for cryopreservation or ...

Alexandria Volkening was funded by the Mathematical Biosciences Institute and the National Science Foundation for this study under grants DMS-1148284, DGE-0228243, and DMS-1440386. Stripes are common ...
