Cross maze

The aquatic cross maze is a multifunctional maze for zebrafish learning and memory testing, but also allows for other tests, such as social preference. This is because you can adjust the maze any way you want with several inserts. It can also be fitted with colored sleeves for color discrimination learning. Of course, the aquatic cross maze is perfectly suited for video tracking your zebrafish with EthoVision XT.

T-maze testing

The cross maze is excellent for T-maze testing or similar discriminative learning tasks. The fish learn to select a certain zone to swim to based on natural preference for the environment, and discrimination can be based on the colored sleeves you use, which are included with the maze. Taught to expect a certain reward, fish will normally learn this quite easily.

Zebrafish and learning paradigms

Zebrafish have become an important animal model for studying neurodegenerative diseases. In validation of these models, both pathologically and behaviorally, many standardized paradigms have been translated from rodent models to zebrafish.

How zebrafish regenerate (and how to measure their recovery)

We all know of animals that are able to regenerate: lizards that grow back their tails, flatworms that can grow into new worms when cut in half. Zebrafish have this special ability as well.

Isolated and stressed zebrafish as a model for major depression

Depression: a fifth (!) of us cope with it, making it the most prevalent psychiatric disorder. Prof. Gerlai recently investigated the interaction between mild stress and developmental isolation in zebrafish models.

How young zebrafish cope with stress

Stress is a natural thing, and how we cope with it differs from person to person. In research, we use the term coping style, something that emerges early on in life for zebrafish.
