- LEGO blocks aren’t just for kids 🐟 Research from Dr. Sarah Alderman’s lab @integrativebiology.bsky.social shows zebrafish raised with LEGO early in life learn faster, show less anxiety-like behaviour & handle stress better than those raised in barren environments 🗞️: www.uoguelph.ca/cbs/news/202...

- Reposted by Alejandro BarralloZebrafish aren’t just fascinating to watch — they can regenerate parts of their heart, fins, spinal cord, and even retina! 🐟✨ This makes them one of the most powerful model organisms for studying regeneration and human diseases 🧬🔬.

- Who needs action potentials in skeletal muscle? Not zebrafish!
- Are action potentials in vertebrate muscle essential for contraction? This study of #zebrafish lacking #SodiumChannel NaV1.4 reveals that NaVs are dispensable for #muscle contraction, so the need for muscle #ActionPotentials can vary between vertebrates @plosbiology.org 🧪 plos.io/42EXQwx
