A feeding electric eel can cause transfection of plasmids from the surrounding environment into nearby organisms - natural, eel induced, electroporation.

@chrmosimann awesome. love it. They're not even interested in the cucumber slice.

[Tom Carney @CarneyTomJ]

@chrmosimann he doesn't look that happy about it.

@hellbendermodel is this a juvenile? could be leftover of the pre-anal fin fold.

@chrmosimann nice! didn't know they had so many!

@chrmosimann You're welcome! Snail mail living up to its name. that took forever to arrive.

@JanStundl @PNASNews @BronnerLab @Caltech @czexpats beautiful paper, Jan! just read it. Has a cell type re-written its own job description more often than trunk neural crest?

[Tom Carney @CarneyTomJ]

@chrmosimann @SocDevBio excellent!

We found that zebrafish utilizes mechanical waves in epithelial sheet migration during wound healing to detect the amputation position on the tailfin. https://t.co/p89aqqlrkP

Congrats to Lalith Ethiraj on successfully passing her PhD Thesis Viva this week!
Motivated by an increasing clinical problem, Lalith took the leap to pause her work as a Maxillofacial surgeon, and developed a zebrafish model of bone necrosis.
