Methods in ZebraFish Behavior analysis 2013
The 5th meeting Methods in ZebraFish Behavior analysis will be held in Barcelona on Monday the 8th of July.
This is a satellite symposium of the European Zebrafish meeting (9-13July).

High throughput ZebraFish studies involve an increasing number of labs around the world. But when setting up an experimental protocol, a number of challenges arise. Based on successful “user case” experience, the meeting presentations will highlight the key steps to design and analyze your experiment.

30 seconds to analyse 200 zebrafish embryos in their chorion


The power of high-throughput technology and the pertinence of in vivo analysis:
based on the response of zebrafish embryos (36hpf) to a light stimulus, the automated ZebraBox platform enables the large-scale identification of active compounds, the detection of adverse effects and revelation of the mechanisms of action of future candidate drugs. A revolutionary tool at the service of drug discovery, pharmacology and toxicology!

Science Publication : Zebrafish behavioral profiling links drugs to biological targets and rest/wake regulation.
Harvard University published in Science on January the 15th, the results of its drug profiling using ViewPoint's high throughput technology.

"A major obstacle for the discovery of psychoactive drugs is the inability to predict how small molecules will alter complex behaviors. We report the development and application of a high-throughput, quantitative screen for drugs that alter the behavior of larval zebrafish. We found that the multidimensional nature of observed phenotypes enabled the hierarchical clustering of molecules according to shared behaviors. [...]"

"We can screen 112 compounds every three days, or 224 compounds per week." Science 327, 348 (2010) - Dr. Jason Rhiel et al. - Harvard Univ. Read more on the screening technology...


New Software : ZebraFish HeartBeat calculation
ZebraFish cardiac cycle is an important parameter to verify the toxicity effect of a compound or to check physiological parameters of a mutant.
The ZebraLab software enable to automate this task and various experiment involving movement of organs (such as the gut transit).
