Castranova, D., Weinstein, B., Samasa, B., n.d. Dorsal view of bones and scales (blue) and lymphatic vessels (orange) in a juvenile zebrafish | 2020 Photomicrography Competition.
The Londraville lab seeks to explore the relationship between endospanin, leptin and bone in zebrafish through the comparison of various mutant strains. In this project students will explore how some variable (e.g., age, weight, mutation) affects bone formation and bone resorption in zebrafish.
You will gain hands-on experience in the following areas: zebrafish handling and care, ImageJ analysis, microscopy, microinjection, and protein assays.
