"They found that the zebrafish were showing directional behaviour anomalies, such as inverted swimming and rotary movement, in the microgravity environment on Tiangong." This ambitious project ...

Initially, the zebrafish displayed abnormal spatial behaviors, such as upside-down swimming and circling. "Like humans, fish cannot discern up from down in microgravity, leading to disoriented ...

They were fish out of water. Swimming in a fishbowl 380 kilometers above Earth, they flipped, spun, and struggled to find their bearings — until they adapted. For 43 days in 2024, four zebrafish ...

He added that the new study is not conclusive, and the techniques used to measure the swimming behavior are not as precise as continuous tracking. In their report, the authors stated that in 2006, the ...

Using these techniques, the Sengupta Lab aims to determine how zebrafish coordinate their fins and body during swimming and how this coordination develops. By defining functions of distinct ...

Owing to a lack of basic information on the biology of zebrafish (Danio rerio), lab managers must often base decisions regarding the care and use of this species on anecdotal information.

Initially, the zebrafish displayed abnormal spatial behaviors, such as upside-down swimming and circling. "Like humans, fish cannot discern up from down in microgravity, leading to disoriented ...
