Use of zebrafish as a model to understand mechanisms of addiction and complex neurobehavioral phenotypes.

Abstract excerpt

Despite massive research efforts the exact pathogenesis and pathophysiology of addiction and neuropsychiatric disorders such as anxiety, schizophrenia and autism remain largely unknown. Animal models can serve as tools to understand the etiology and pathogenesis of these disorders. In recent years researchers are turning to zebrafish as it allows easy access to all developmental stages and imaging of pathological...
