Microbiologist Karen Guillemin considered many universities when she was searching for her first faculty position 25 years ago. In the end, she came ...

A research team from the University of Cologne has shown how zebrafish can rebuild their nerve pathways and restore their locomotor function after a spinal cord injury. Specialized connective tissue ...

Abstract: Zebrafish is a valuable animal model for cardiovascular research and development of innovative heart failure treatments. Zebrafish possess two-chamber heart, and their blood vessels bear a ...

Zebrafish can regenerate sensory hair cells that humans permanently lose, like those in the inner ear linked to hearing and balance. New research reveals two specific genes that control how different ...

OMAHA, Neb. (WOWT) - Zebrafish could help unravel the mysteries of hearing loss in humans. It’s a study underway at Creighton University that’s made possible through a $1.3 million dollar grant from ...

Vascular development in different organs is precisely controlled, yet how this process is orchestrated remains to be elucidated. Previously, we found that dysfunction of DEAD-box RNA helicase 24 ...

Current genetic sequencing techniques can provide much information about the genetic makeup and activity in a sample, like a piece of tissue or a drop of blood. But they are unable to reveal where ...
