## Abstract Flowβstructure interactions are ubiquitous in nature, and are important factors in the proper development of form and function in living organisms. In order to uncover the mechanisms by which flowβstructure interactions affect vertebrate development, we first need to establish the techn

Abstract
Imaging and molecular approaches are perfectly suited to young, transparent zebrafish (Danio rerio), where they have allowed novel functional studies of neural circuits and their links to behavior. Here, we review cuttingβedge optical and genetic techniques used to dissect neural circuits in vivo and discuss their application to future studies of developing spinal circuits using living zebrafish. We anticipate that these experiments will reveal general principles governing the assembly of neural circuits that control movements. Β© 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Develop Neurobiol, 2008

## Abstract Owing to its optical clarity and rapid rate of development, the zebrafish embryo is an ideal model system for studying the cellular mechanics of organogenesis. Unfortunately, extended timeβlapse recordings of zebrafish embryos are often disrupted by the extension and straightening of th
## Abstract We report noninvasive imaging of the brain of adult Zebrafish (__Danio rerio__) using real time optical coherence tomography (OCT) capable of acquiring cross sectional 2D OCT images @ 8 frames/sec. Anatomic features such as telencephalon, tectum opticum, eminentia Granularis and cerebel
## Abstract ## Background and Objectives The ability to correctly visualize the architectural arrangement of microvasculature is valuable to many diverse fields in medicine. In this study, we applied photoacoustics (PA) to obtain highβresolution images of submillimeter blood vessels. ## Study Des
