Very excited for this paper- a new zebrafish screen for analgesics, works for natural products extracts. Open Access! More on ‘behavior-guided’ isolation to come! Thanks to the Strother team for a wonderful collaboration! @ UF WhitneyLab authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S...

Federica flew to Santiago de Chile and then Punta Arenas in southern Chile. She met our colleagues at the Instituto Antártico Chileno (INACH) and was outfitted and trained for the Antarctic Summer ;) January 16th, she flew to King George Island, Villa Las Estrellas, Antartica! 🐧 What an adventure!
