Zebrafish are becoming a popular model organism for neuroscience research.
The 10th One-day Zebrafish Behavioral Neuroscience and Neurophenotyping Workshop (ZB2N-2015) is dedicated to major neurobehavioral domains and advanced phenotyping techniques for probing normal and pathological behaviors in zebrafish.
10th One-day Zebrafish Behavioral Neuroscience and Neurophenotyping Workshop (ZB2N-2015) covers topics such as:
- General motor phenotypes
- Introduction to behavioral ecology of zebrafish
- Anxiety and fear-related behaviors
- Neurotoxicity models
- Memory and Learning
- Social phenotypes: shoaling and social preference
- Depression-like phenotypes
- Predator avoidance behavior
- Genetic/strain differences
- Drug abuse and withdrawal
- Advanced video-tracking and 3D phenotyping
- Aggression and boldness phenotypes
- Zebrafish models of psychoses
- High-throughput small molecule screens
- Measuring zebrafish body coloration responses
- Hallucinogenic and stimulant drugs’ effects
- Enhancing zebrafish research with online databases
- Biomarkers: CNS c-fos, egr, whole-body cortisol
