Items related to Atlas of Early Zebrafish Brain Development: A Tool...
The zebrafish has become the standard model for the study of the development of the brain in vertebrates. Molecular biologists, developmental biologists, and neuroscientists increasingly turn to this fish with it's now wide variety of available mutants and known marker genes. This book is intended as a basic handbook and guideline for zebrafish researchers who seek to understand early brain development and neurogenesis in this important model system. The book introduces the reader to the field and principles of vertebrate brain development and neurogenesis as it is commonly investigated in other model organisms such as frog, chick and mouse.
With its holistic and broad approach, the atlas is not only recommended for zebrafish researchers working on specific questions of developmental neurogenetics, but also for students at progressed levels who enter the young and exciting field of zebrafish developmental neurogenetics. There is simply no alternative source for combined neuroanatomical and gene expression data in the zebrafish on this level of detail.
* Stands as the first gene-expression based developmental atlas in any neurogenetic model system
* Provides comparative context to other model systems
* Includes many explanatory schematics in uniform style and color coding

Review:
This atlas resource serves as a guideline for researchers on the early brain development and neurogenesis of the zebrafish as a model system.
Synopsis:
"The Atlas of Early Zebrafish Brain Development" is the first neuroanatomical expression atlas of important genetic and immunohistochemical markers of a vertebrate model system. In-situ hybridized and immunostained preparations of complete series of brain sections reveal markers of the fundamental stages in the life history of neuronal cells (proliferation/determination, migration and neuronal differentiation) in very high quality preparations and photographic plates. Early brain organization is vividly demonstrated and local variations in brain development are shown in a holistic view. This book represents a key reference and interpretation matrix to analyze expression domains of genes involved in Zebrafish brain development and neurogenesis and thus represents a milestone in this research area. There is simply no alternative source for combined neuroanatomical and gene expression data in the Zebrafish at this level of detail. The book introduces the reader to the field and shows principles of vertebrate brain development and neurogenesis. It will also be of great value to investigators of other model organisms such as frog, chick and mouse.It stands as the first gene-expression based developmental atlas in any neurogenetic model system. It provides comparative context to other model systems and includes many explanatory schematics in uniform style and color coding.
