Announcing the 2026 FranklinβPrasherβKimmel (FPK) Webinar Series Speakers
IZFS and YoRC recognize outstanding early-career researchers in zebrafish biology. View the programme and abstract book here: www.izfs.org/UserFiles/fi...
#Webinar #IZFS #Zebrafish #earlycareerresearchers
While we don't see any papers from #zebrafish peeps this time, it's always a good idea to check out @focalplane.bsky.social's preprint list for the latest microscopy tools and tricks! (Heck, you can be the first to apply them to fish!)
Very happy to share this study from our group and colleagues now out in Science!
We found that in zebrafish, before the immune system is mature, gut epithelial cells perform immune functions by producing the cytokine IL-22 to shape the microbiota to promote early life gut function

Image of the bat signal but instead of a bat it's a zebrafish. Also, it's dark and rainy.
Another #AskZebrafish from Slack: Does anyone that uses #zebrafish have a favorite photoconvertible protein? Ideally one that is well-suited for membrane labeling? π€

Query from Slack: Looking for wls (wntless) and/or wnt5a/wnt5b mutant #zebrafish lines in Europe? If you have these or know any leads, please reach out π #AskZebrafish
Very cool #zebrafish paper, for those interested! π
Really cool #zebrafish paper π§ͺ from Bart Weijts & Catherine Robin (Hubrecht): starts with the basic question of are those superbright kdrl/fli1a positive cells (that we've all seen in the vascular Tg lines) something special? Yes! They're lumenal macrophages

Fluorescent microscopy image of nf1 zebrafish model. Green signals represent increased pERK levels in nf1 mutant larvae compared to wild type. Magenta signals denote decreased levels of phosphorylated ERK1/2 (pERK) in nf1 mutant larvae compared to those in wild type.
The latest #EditorsChoice is from Miller, Halloran & co @uwmadison.bsky.social as they show that inhibition of chemokine receptor (Cxcr4) signaling improves habituation learning and increases cAMP signaling in a #zebrafish model of neurofibromatosis #NF1

Join us for another Danio Zoom this Friday, April 3rd! ππ£
DZ is a free event via Zoom where colleagues get together to discuss and share all things #zebrafish or #aquaticanimals in research. β¬οΈ
Would you like to run our Cellular Potts Model (#CPM) of neuromast regeneration in #zebrafish? It is now available in the amazing @morpheus-lab.bsky.social repository:
morpheus.gitlab.io/model/m4377/
Curious about the Science? Check our paper: doi.org/10.1016/j.jt...
This #microscopymonday image from MDI Bio Lab's Drummond lab shows cell ablation and regeneration in the pronephros of a #zebrafish. The pronephros is the first, simplest kidney that forms in zebrafish embryos. It serves as a vital model for studying human kidney development.

As part of the ZDMS cancer RIG 2026 meet up webinars, we want to encourage ECR participants to apply for the opportunity to share their research with our community, if you are doing cool cancer research using #zebrafish please apply here eur02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com?url=https%3A...
Help start up this new lab! #zebrafish
Great image, @matyasbl.bsky.social π₯ Surely the #zebrafish community has more images to share π Submit the goods here: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

βImportantly, we find that reduction in germ cell motility is correlated with the decay of RNA encoding for Dead end 1 (Dnd1), a conserved vertebrate RNA-binding protein that is essential for PGC migration.β

Super congrats to Prof. Lisa Manning @syracuseu.bsky.social! #zebrafish
What legends! Additional congrats to Profs. David Grunwald @utah.edu & Ela Knapik @vanderbilt.edu! #zebrafish
A powerful new toolkit for precise genome engineering in #zebrafish.
This study from the group of Junsu Kang introduces a versatile mini golden system which allows for one-step customization of donor templates + a synthetic exon strategy enabling highly precise genome edits.

AFOG staining of an adult female zebrafish that is egg-bound. You can see the cloaca on the left with lots of collagen (blue) and villi(?). On the right, you can spot oocytes at various stages of maturation. Captured on an Evident Slide Scanner.
The #zebrafish cloaca is bizarre and beautiful, as spotted looking for something else! Here it is in an adult female stained for collagen (in blue). I should probably mark this as sensitive content, right? π€¦ #FishNotPeople
