For the past few years there has been an exponential increase in the use of animal models
to confirm the pathogenicity of candidate disease-causing genetic variants found in patients …

The developing brain is extremely sensitive to many chemicals. Exposure to neurotoxicants
during development has been implicated in various neuropsychiatric and neurological …

The brain has persistent internal states that can modulate every aspect of an animal's mental
experience,,–. In complex tasks such as foraging, the internal state is dynamic …

Zebrafish (Danio rerio) have emerged as a promising model organism to study
development, toxicology, pharmacology, and neuroscience, among other areas. Despite the …

Due to their well-characterized neural development and high genetic homology to
mammals, zebrafish (Danio rerio) have emerged as a powerful model organism in the field …

Essential components of animal behaviour are modulated by dopaminergic (DA) and
noradrenergic circuitry. In this study, we reveal at cellular resolution the complete set of …

Pharmaceutical compounds and their metabolites are found in natural and wastewater.
However, investigation of their toxic effects on aquatic animals has been neglected …

Zebrafish (Danio rerio) are rapidly emerging as an important model organism for aquatic
neuropharmacology and toxicology research. The behavioral/phenotypic complexity of …

Since its introduction as a genetic vertebrate model system approximately 30 years ago, the
focus of zebrafish research has increasingly shifted to questions that are also relevant for …

The paraventricular nucleus (PVN) in mammals is the main hypothalamic nucleus
controlling hormone release in the pituitary and plays pivotal roles in homeostasis. While the …
