Zebrafish (Danio Rerio) have emerged as one of the leading model for studying the development and modeling of human disease.

These little teleost fish present many advantages:

• very rapid embryonic development (all major organs are formed within 3 days)
• transparency of the embryos (allowing visual observations of internal structures and non-invasive imaging)
• short generation time (zebrafish are sexually mature after 3-4 months)
• high fecundity (a single female can lay up to 150  eggs per clutch et per week allowing powerful statistics)
• high genetic homology to humans (about 75% of the human genome has functional homologs with zebrafish)
