To overcome this challenge, Claire Bedbrook and colleagues developed a high-resolution, continuous behavioral recording platform to monitor naturally short-lived African turquoise killifish, which ...
The research monitored 81 killifish from early adulthood to death using automated camera systems. These short-lived fish, with lifespans of 4-8 months, share brain complexity with humans, making them ...
By closely monitoring fish throughout their lives, researchers found that simple behaviors in midlife—like movement and sleep—can predict lifespan. Fish that stayed active and slept mostly at night ...
A tiny fish with transparent embryos is helping University of California, Davis, researchers shed light on how exposure to crude oil and flame retardants can affect behavior, skeletal growth, cardiac ...
Scientists tracking the entire life of the African turquoise killifish have discovered that behavior alone can predict whether an animal will live a long or short life. By midlife, an animal's ...
UC Davis research on embryonic killifish reveals new insights into the multi-generational impacts of exposure to crude oil and flame retardants. A tiny fish with transparent embryos is helping ...
Killifish sound much more vicious than they are. These tiny fish adapt and spread far in the wild but make beautiful fish for display in your home. Killifish is a group of around 1,270 species of ...
A new species of seasonal killifish was discovered in Sertão do Riacho stream in Brazil’s Atlantic Forest, according to a study. Gomes, B. P., Sarmento-Soares, L. M., Martins-Pinheiro, R. F., & Leite, ...
