New research has shown how zebrafish can rebuild nerve pathways and restore locomotor function after spinal injury.

Using simulations, robots, and live fish, scientists at EPFL and Duke University have replicated the neural circuitry that ...

Dr. Brian Ciruna had no intention of studying scoliosis, a condition that causes unnatural curvature of the spine. However, the unexpected discovery about a decade ago that zebrafish also develop ...

Our skin protects us from everyday mechanical stresses, like friction, cuts, and impacts. A key part of this ...

One of the most popular animal models in research is the Zebrafish, a tropical fish which is native to the rice paddies of Asia. Complex ethical concerns surrounding human testing have resulted in the ...

Optic neuropathies including glaucoma, traumatic injury, ischemic damage, and optic neuritis, are the leading causes of irreversible blindness ...

New research describes how nerve cells and muscle cells communicate through electrical signals during development -- a phenomenon known as bioelectricity. The communication, which takes place via ...
