- German Fish Meeting webpage coming soon with all fish models! Special postdoc session by @mads100tist.bsky.social + lunch meet-up with the 3 keynotes. We also hope to welcome participants from France, Switzerland, Austria and more Updates here or on @rastapopolus.bsky.social
- 🐟 Good news from EZRC! A new shaking-based method allows rapid genotyping of live zebrafish embryos, helping reduce surplus animals while advancing research 🔬✨
- Zebrafish 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 🧬🔬.
- 📢 !!!! The next IZMC at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology starts 22nd September. 🌍 The course will be conducted in English. ✨ #IZMC #Zebrafish #Medaka #FishModel #KIT
- To generate mutant reporter lines, if you have any questions, you can contact our partner TEFOR (Paris-Saclay) tefor.net
- Reposted by European Zebrafish Resource Center🐟 Karlsruhe Institut of Technology hosts since 2012 Europe’s only Zebrafish Resource Centre (EZRC). 30,000+ mutant lines, 2,000+ gene plasmids (Armant et al. 2013: 10.1016/j.ydbio.2013.05.006, Diotel et al. 2015: 10.1002/cne.23733), plus hands-on courses in 🇩🇪 & 🇬🇧! ! 🔬 www.ezrc.kit.edu #Zebrafish
- The first #Fish course ( IZMC) of 2026 ( #KIT /Campus North) is scheduled for January 26th and will likely be in German. This will be followed by courses in March (16.03-19.03), May (04.05-07.05), September, October, and November. Stay tuned for more updates! #zebrafish #medaka
- First German #fish meeting September 2026
- We—Nicolas @rohner.bsky.social, Lauren @lsaunders.bsky.social, Arica @abeisaw.bsky.social & Sepand @rastapopolus.bsky.social—are planning the first German #fish ( #zebrafish, #medaka, #killifish, others) #meeting for September 2026. If you're a PI & want info, get in touch!
- We’re happy to participate in the #Helmholtz #Imaging #Conference 2025! 🧠🐟 Don’t miss the June 25 (morning) workshop on “Advances and Challenges in #Zebrafish Image and Video Analysis.” 🔗 events.hifis.net/event/2556/
- The European Zebrafish Resource Center (EZRC) at KIT hosts Europe’s largest zebrafish facility, distributing 10,000+ mutant lines and plasmids, and driving collaboration via EU-funded projects. 🧬🐟 #Zebrafish #Genetics #EZRC
- At EZRC, our mission is to empower the zebrafish community by providing: 🐟 30,000+ zebrafish lines & 2,000+ plasmids 🎓 Training in zebrafish & Medaka, including cryopreservation 📊 Comprehensive expression databases for Embryo TFs and Adult TFs. Explore our resources at EZRC. 🌐 #Zebrafish #KIT
- We aim to collect & share mutant/transgenic #zebrafish from EU labs—cutting animal use. But stricter laws risk the opposite. Support us in this vital activity!
- We offer 6 FELASA-accredited fish courses per year in both German and English. The schedule for 2025 is shown below. Don’t miss your chance to register early! izmc.ezrc.kit.edu
