Congratulations! |
The Topczewski laboratory investigates the mechanisms that control the morphogenetic processes of vertebrate embryos, by using zebrafish as a model. Similarities in developmental programs among all vertebrates make zebrafish an excellent model for studying human diseases and development. In our work we utilize a combination of genetic analysis with embryological and molecular methods uniquely available in zebrafish. Our long-term goal is the identification of signaling pathways that will suggest novel candidate genes involved in human congenital abnormalities and diseases.
