Segmentation of the vertebrate hindbrain leads to the formation of rhombomeres, each with
a distinct anteroposterior identity. Specialised boundary cells form at segment borders that …

Genetic screens in zebrafish (Danio rerio) have isolated mutations in hundreds of genes
essential for vertebrate development, physiology, and behavior. We have constructed a …

Zebrafishbrain. org is an online neuroanatomical atlas of the embryonic zebrafish. The atlas
uses high-resolution confocal images and movies of transgenic lines to describe different …

The zebrafish is an excellent vertebrate model for the study of the cellular interactions
underlying the patterning and the morphogenesis of the nervous system. Here, we report …

The process whereby a single cell, the fertilized egg, develops into an adult has fascinated
for centuries. Great progress in understanding that process, however, has been made in the …

The zebrafish has become an important model for studying early vertebrate development.
This is largely because of the pioneering work of George Streisinger and the later work of his …

Central to most evolutionary research is the desire to understand the proximate and ultimate
factors leading to increased biological diversity. Developmental and evolutionary biology …

The embryonic zebrafish is rapidly becoming an important model system for studies of early
events in vertebrate development. We review recent work describing the development of …

The last decade has seen a dramatic rise in the number of genes linked to neurological
disorders, necessitating new models to explore underlying mechanisms and to test potential …

Most zebrafish neurodevelopmental studies have focused on the embryo, which is
characterized by primary neurogenesis of mostly transient neurons. Secondary …
