"Zebrafish 101"

Each year, the Integrative Developmental Biology (iDB) educational initiative organizes a model system workshop. These workshops are designed to give scientists in a particular area an opportunity to build community and share data. These workshops are designed to be accessible to all scientific levels, novices and experts. This year, we are offering a Zebrafish workshop!

·     Lunch and Discussion with Faculty Moderators
            Topics include Imaging in ZF, Cilia Development, Running a ZF Facility, Setting up
            your own ZF Lab, Disease Models in ZF, Using ZF to study gene regulation and
            Making ZF knockouts
·     John Mably & Joanne Chan, “Organogenesis & Tissue Development”
·     Randy Peterson & Chetana Sachidanandan “Small Molecule Screening”
