“The growth of the zebrafish nervous system is a fascinating subject”💡 “How does animal behavior emerge from networks of connected neurons? How are these incredible nervous systems and behaviors actually generated by evolution? “ NB!📚 1)Zebrafish are a vertebrate model that produce large numbers of externally and rapidly developing embryos. Noticeably,neuroscientists have grown extremely fond of zebrafish in past decades to understand central and peripheral nervous system function, dysfunction, and their genetic and pharmacological modulation. 2) Zebrafish share a remarkable similarity to humans at the molecular, genetic and cellular levels, meaning many findings are immediately relevant to humans (2020, Oregon State Univ. News-https://lnkd.in/gPSxZ_cA) 3) Zebrafish can continually generate new neurons in their brains, which protects these vertebrates from the ravages of neurological disease and injury. However, adult humans can only make a meager number of new neurons, mostly in the hippocampus (the brain’s memory center), and diseases like Alzheimer’s suppress this production even further. #neurodegenerativediseases #alzheimer #mammals #evolutionarybiology (2023- Growth factor that helps zebrafish regenerate their brains, available at: https://lnkd.in/gP2NcMFp) More below 👇🏻🚀 Curiosity 📖 -A model organism for neuroscience research, the transparent jellyfish Clytia hemisphaerica was proposed (MIT 2021, https://lnkd.in/gbkThSeX) #neurology #neurotech #neurobiology #nervousystem #species #genetics #pharmacology #neuroscientists #evolution #zoology #humanhealth #cell #cellregeneration #biomedicine #neurologicaldiseases #brain

RBG’s current exhibit delves into the world of Nature’s Superheroes: Life at the Limits. Developed by the American Museum of Natural History in New York, this exhibit focuses on animals and plants that live in some of our planet’s most harsh and challenging places. You don’t have to look too far to find plant and animal species with special adaptations that help them survive in challenging environments - including right here at RBG. Understanding these special adaptations helps us see how important it is to protect and restore habitat for native species. Read: Superheroes: the RBG Edition https://lnkd.in/gzyeig2k

Lecturer/Assistant Professor @ University of Glasgow | Human Computer Interaction, Animal Computer Interaction
I'm excited for #CHI2024 where my Animal-Computer Interaction lab will present 3 full and 1 late-breaking paper on: (1) 🐒 Investigating building an audio device for three species of lemurs to look at how to design technologies for animals that work for the individuals vs groups/species (with Vilma Kankaanpää and Fay Clark) 🔗 https://lnkd.in/ed_7TxNq (2) 🐦 Looking at how parrots use live vs. pre-recorded video call devices looking at how animals make sense of themselves online in video calls (with Rébecca Kleinberger and Jennifer Cunha) 🔗 https://lnkd.in/erTS9zgt (3) 🐦 Presenting our work on how parrots use touch screens in a Fitts's style game we developed that measured their touching behaviours towards developing more animal-friendly applications (with Rébecca Kleinberger and Jennifer Cunha) 🔗 https://lnkd.in/eFfJGXfv (4) 🐒 Looking at how lemurs engage with single vs. multimodal technologies towards supporting building enrichment for lemurs in zoos (with Wang Jiaqi and Steve Brewster) 🔗 https://lnkd.in/erqCHfm3 The full papers will be presented next Tuesday (14th) in the Inter- and Cross-Species Interactions Session (11am-12.40am), the first CHI session to be totally Animal-Computer Interaction work 🎉

Scientific Advisor & Account Manager. Redefining Safety and Efficacy in Preclininical Drug Discovery for Pharma & Biotech: Let's innovate together! DMs if you want to learn how.
Did you know that there's more to zebrafish than meets the eye? 🤓 Meet the cast: Wild Type, Leopard and Casper! 🦓🐆👻 🦓 Wild Type: The classic! These zebrafish showcase the natural beauty of the species. They're the rock stars of the aquatic world, setting the standard for zebrafish research. 🐆 Leopard: Just like their namesake, these zebrafish have stunning spots! These spots, known as melanocytes, add a touch of pizzazz to the fish's appearance. 🎨 👻 Casper: No, not the ghost! Casper zebrafish are transparent, making them superstars for studying internal processes. With their see-through bodies, they offer researchers a glimpse into the underwater secrets of development and disease. So the next time you explore the world of zebrafish, remember that it's not all about the stripes. These fin-tastic varieties bring a splash of diversity to scientific exploration! 🌊🔬 Let me know which is your favourite 💙💙💙
