🐟 Good news from EZRC!
A new shaking-based method allows rapid genotyping of live zebrafish embryos, helping reduce surplus animals while advancing research 🔬✨

Zebrafish aren’t just fascinating to watch — they can regenerate parts of their heart, fins, spinal cord, and even retina! 🐟✨
This makes them one of the most powerful model organisms for studying regeneration and human diseases 🧬🔬.

We aim to collect & share mutant/transgenic #zebrafish from EU labs—cutting animal use. But stricter laws risk the opposite. Support us in this vital activity!
