Over the last two decades, the zebrafish has joined the ranks of premier model organisms
for biomedical research, with a full suite of tools and genomic resources. Yet we still know …

Antidepressants are one of the most commonly prescribed pharmaceutical classes for the
treatment of psychiatric conditions. They act via modulation of brain monoaminergic …

Abstract microRNAs (miRNAs) repress target transcripts through partial complementarity. By
contrast, highly complementary miRNA-binding sites within viral and artificially engineered …

The prevalence of overweight and obesity has markedly increased during the past few
decades. Stress has been suggested as one environmental factor that may contribute to 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 …

While personality differences in animals are defined as consistent behavioural variation
between individuals, the widely studied field of foraging specialisation in marine vertebrates …

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental disorder characterized
by motor, social and cognitive deficits that develop early during childhood. The …

Behavioural traits that are consistent over time and in different contexts are often referred to
as personality traits. These traits influence fitness because they play a major role in foraging …

Behavioral responses to novel situations often vary and can belong to a suite of correlated
behaviors. Characteristic behaviors of different personality types (eg stress coping styles) …
