Scientists headed by a team at the Chan Zuckerberg Biohub San Francisco (CZ Biohub SF) reported on the development of Zebrahub, a dynamic, state-of-the-art atlas of zebrafish embryonic development.

"Zebrahub" is an atlas of cells in developing zebrafish embryos, and scientists say it will help us learn about our own biology, too. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...

When early cartographers undertook perilous expeditions to map unknown corners of the world with sextants, compasses, and hand-drawn diagrams, it’s unlikely they imagined that someday anyone with an ...

The zebrafish organism has been utilized as a model to analyze biomaterials in various applications, such as bioimaging, simulating human disease, nanotoxicity, epigenomics, regenerative medicine, and ...

Can a single protein-encoding gene determine whether a vertebrate embryo develops normally? Yes, according to Osaka Metropolitan University researchers, who found that suppression of Pcdh8 is ...

Life begins with a single fertilized cell that gradually transforms into a multicellular organism. This process requires precise coordination; otherwise, the embryo could develop serious complications ...

New research describes how nerve cells and muscle cells communicate through electrical signals during development -- a phenomenon known as bioelectricity. The communication, which takes place via ...

A cross-department collaboration headed by researchers at Harvard Medical School and Harvard University has witnessed the moment at which cells in the zebrafish embryo heart start beating in unison ...

CISPA researcher Sarath Sivaprasad, together with Hui-Po Wang and Mario Fritz from CISPA and other colleagues from HIPS, has developed an AI system that can automatically detect abnormalities in ...
