The first paper from the lab! What started as a simple comparison between zebrafish lines turned into an analysis of sensorimotor development in zebrafish larvae: doi.org/10.1016/j.bb...

Due to their aquatic environment, #zebrafish are perfect for small molecule drug screens. Many drugs have been repurposed for novel treatments such as COX inhibitors in leukemia & glucocorticoids in long QT syndrome. For more, read this Nature review ($): doi.org/10.1038/nrd4... #ZebrafishFunFacts 🧪
Figure taken from MacRae & Peterson (2015): How suitable are zebrafish for discovering human drugs? Although zebrafish enable in vivo studies on a large scale, questions remain about how relevant the findings are for drug discovery. Recent studies have begun to elucidate the degree of conservation between humans and zebrafish, which share 82% of disease-associated targets and a large number of drug metabolism pathways (as illustrated by the mass spectrometry of metabolic by-products). Zebrafish physiology is often well conserved (sometimes more so than rodent physiology); for example, cardiac electrophysiology (illustrative electrocardiogram (ECG) tracings from each organism are shown). Several compounds discovered in zebrafish screens have been shown to exhibit similar effects in rodent models and humans, including eight out of ten compounds tested by our groups. m/z, mass to charge ratio.

My laboratory at Université Laval in Québec City, Canada, is looking for a postdoc to study how neuromodulatory systems impact cortical processing during foraging behavior. This fully-funded position offers a collaborative environment in a great city. More info👇
