Zebrafish larvae may possess some primitive counting ability just days after hatching. Several animals, including honeybees and salamanders, have been shown to have some form of numerical skill.

If a zebrafish’ spine is injured, the damaged neurons respond by dramatically changing their cellular functions. They take on a new and central role in orchestrating the very precise events that ...

Zebrafish are unassuming and undemanding. Almost every child knows that – at least any child that has kept fish in an aquarium. Since the beginning of the 20th century, these fish have been one of the ...

The four zebrafish arrived at the Tiangong space station aboard the Shenzhou 18 spacecraft on April 26, along with astronauts Ye Guangfu, Li Cong and Li Guangsu. The fish live in a tank that forms ...

Zebrafish Research at Purdue University. We are a group of Purdue faculty using zebrafish in our research. Our research interest covers a wide variety of topics, including cancer, development, disease ...

“Zebrafish breed really well,” said Dr. Grainger. “We can get over 100 offspring in a single mating pair, whereas with mice, you only get 6 or 7 babies in a single pair.

Both modified and non-modified versions of the flies and fish were exposed to mercury. The results were impressive. After three days, the genetically modified fruit fly larvae had 83% less ...
