Publisher Summary The consensus of the biologists in attendance at the Third Cold Spring
Harbor Conference on Zebrafish Development and Genetics is that the zebrafish has now …

The zebrafish has become one of the most important model organisms to study biologial
processes in vivo. As a vertebrate that has many of the strengths of invertebrate model …

The zebrafish has long been the favorite organism in many scientific disciplines. Although its
attributes as a model were expounded for many years and thus were no secret, the zebrafish …

This book describes a range of molecular biological and genetic techniques that have been
employed in zebrafish (Danio rerio). The first section describes methods of mutagenesis and …

The zebrafish model has recently emerged as a significant experimental system for
developmental biology studies. In this review, we provide an introduction to the zebrafish …

The study of zebrafish as a leading model organism for developmental biology is rapidly
expanding. The growing interest in zebrafish research was paralleled by an increase in tools …

In order to rapidly identify a substantial fraction of the genes with a unique and essential role
in vertebrate development, the laboratory of Nancy Hopkins at MIT has performed a large …

Why did zebrafish become an important biomedical model? Here I review the background
and history leading to the popularity of zebrafish as a genetic model for investigating …

Inventive genetic screens in zebrafish are revealing new genetic pathways that control
vertebrate development, disease and behaviour. By exploiting the versatility of zebrafish …

Abstract ZFIN, the Zebrafish Model Organism Database (http://zfin. org), is the central
