BUFFALO, N.Y. – A team of scientists will study if zebrafish, a popular aquarium fish whose genetic and physiological makeup is similar to humans, could unlock new treatments for kidney stones and ...

Scientists have relied on animal models as an alternative to testing on human tissues and cells for decades. But not just any organism can adequately model how human cells behave. Researchers take ...

Researchers have published an atlas of zebrafish development, detailing the gene expression programs that are activated within nearly every cell type during the first five days of development, a ...

A new advance in animal husbandry involving a popular aquarium fish should speed the pace of discovery in laboratory studies ...

Bruker's Acquifer Imaging Machine (IM) is a fully automated widefield microscope with both brightfield and fluorescence imaging capabilities. It is best suited for high-content screening (HCS) and ...

Pericytes regulate cerebrovascular development, while vascular smooth muscle cells prevent hemorrhage and blood–brain barrier breakdown at vascular hotspots in juvenile and adult zebrafish.
