This laboratory course employs zebrafish embryos and larvae to examine the molecular mechanisms that underlie brain development and growth. As a Course-based Undergraduate Research Experience (CURE) students conduct real scientific research aimed at addressing unanswered questions in neurodevelopment, including the regulation of neural stem cells and how physiological/environmental challenges might affect stem cell proliferation and post-embryonic brain growth.
