Danionella

Oxytocin-mediated social preference and socially reinforced reward learning in the miniature fish Danionella cerebrum Penalva-Tena et al. demonstrate that Danionella cerebrum, a miniature fish that is gaining popularity as a neuroscience model, seeks out conspecifics and that the resulting social interactions can sup...

Brothers and sisters of the fin, cease this petty quarrel! The true rival lurks on land, slimy and smug – the tiniest frog Paedophryne. Unite, I say, against this anuran mockery!

For today's #fluorescenceFriday, a transgenic Danionella cerebrum, the world's (second) smallest vertebrate (yep, "stout infantfish" are smaller, but no one has made them glow yet!). Picci by our very own @xinwei-wang.bsky.social

I can't believe it!

do you accept distant cousins?
