    • Thermal navigation in larval zebrafish 

      Robson, Drew Norman (2013-10-08)
      Navigation in complex environments requires selection of appropriate actions as a function of local cues. To gain a quantitative and mechanistic understanding of zebrafish thermal navigation, we have developed a novel assay ...

    • Transcriptional Regulation of Esrp1 and its Role in Craniofacial Morphogenesis 

      Macias Trevino, Claudio (2022-11-23)
      Alternative splicing creates different messenger RNAs from the same genetic locus, an essential regulatory mechanism that increases protein diversity and regulates key developmental processes. Recent studies have identified ...

    • Two-photon calcium imaging during fictive navigation in virtual environments 

      Ahrens, Misha B.; Huang, Kuo Hua; Narayan, Sujatha; Mensh, Brett D.; Engert, Florian (Frontiers Media S.A., 2013)
      A full understanding of nervous system function requires recording from large populations of neurons during naturalistic behaviors. Here we enable paralyzed larval zebrafish to fictively navigate two-dimensional virtual ...

    • Zebrafish Immune Cell Development and Diversity in Health and Disease 

      Rubin, Sara Ann (2022-06-06)
      Hematopoiesis, the process by which all blood cells are generated, is directed by transcription factors and signaling pathways that are highly conserved between zebrafish and humans. In healthy individuals, hematopoietic ...

    • A zebrafish model of conditional targeted podocyte ablation and regeneration 

      Huang, Jianmin; Mckee, Mary; Huang, Hong Dong; Xiang, Alice; Davidson, Alan J; Lu, Hua A J (2013)
      Podocytes are specialized cells that contribute critically to the normal structure and function of the glomerular filtration barrier. Their depletion plays an important role in the pathogenesis of glomerulosclerosis. Here, ...
