New preprint from my lab! Will Anderson developed a transgenic #zebrafish ubiquitously expressing an optogenetic FGF/ERK activator. We're having a lot of fun with it and think you will too! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Some great news, Ensembl has released the GRCz12tu and the GRCz12ab annotations on their beta release site, so now the genes can be looked at in a genome browser. You can load up either one (plus a second TU genome) here: beta.ensembl.org/species-sele... #zebrafish

#KnowYourZDM: In 2019, a 10-year-old patient w/ a life-threatening lymphatic disorder was losing hope. Zebrafish to the rescue! Scientists created zebrafish with the same gene mutation and found a melanoma drug that fixed the fish. Then, doctors used the same drug on the patient to save his life! ๐งช
