Fishing for Insights: What Zebrafish Tell Us About How The Brain Works

Date: Mar. 16, 2021
Time: 6:00 p.m. - 6:30 p.m.

Yuchin Albert Pan, associate professor at the Fralin Biomedical Research Institute, is a neurobiologist who studies the development and function of cellular circuits in the brain in one of nature’s most fascinating vertebrate species – the zebrafish. The transparency of the fish’s body, combined with the power of genetics and molecular tools to label cells, allows for unprecedented views into the living functioning nervous system in health and disease to study disorders of eye movement control and characteristics of autism. This lecture will be archived on this page after the event.
