Fishing for Data

[Past Projects]

Dr. Richard Londraville and Carrie Buo


Project one

Combine behavioral biology and engineering by joining the fish maze team! We are creating a maze that will measure associate learning capacity in both wild type and mutant zebrafish. Duties include:

  • Assisting with the design and construction of the maze
  • Collecting data
  • Analyzing data / fish behavior
  • Fish care

If you are interested in studying the way diabetic-like mutations affect intelligence, this is the lab for you!

Project two

Learn molecular biology techniques by participating in an ongoing genotyping project. Student(s) will learn PCR and gel electrophoresis to genotype zebrafish from fin clips. Earn credit while gaining valuable experience in lab procedures.
