About the Images
Larval zebrafish are optically clear, allowing researchers to observe the nervous system as it develops, and monitor the activity of neurons during behavior. The Burgess laboratory uses zebrafish to define the neuronal circuits that control behavior, and identify the genes which contribute to the development of these circuits. Pictured here, 6 day-old zebrafish swim near the water's surface.
