"We demonstrated under a semi-natural setting that the mating system in N. furzeri is dominated by large males, which become territorial when the spawning substrate is limited (clustered), a likely situation in the environment of ephemeral pools."

Please share with your #killifish colleagues 🐟 #ZebrafishMeeting

Youthful antics predict lifespan? Using machine learning & continuous recordings of #killifish behavior from adolescence until death, @brunetlab.bsky.social & @deisseroth.bsky.social find early-life behavior predicted future lifespan! Now published @science.org: www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... 🧪 1/2

🐟 Sort & plate your #killifish embryos automatically
African turquoise killifish are a game-changer for aging & ecotox, but prepping embryos is slow & inconsistent.

Husbandry of N. furzeri, the shortest-lived vertebrate used for biogerontology, is dependent on bloodworms. When our protocol is followed, you can feed N. furzeri an open-formula purified diet — paving the way for more consistent and reproducible lab studies. #killifish @thefsbi.bsky.social

Beautiful, moving combination of music, fish embryo microscopy, and Pablo Neruda poetry introduces Miguel Concha’s #LISH25 lecture. Walk-up song on another level! Like at #Woodstock. Fascinating and unusual #Morphogenesis of #killifish follows.
