About the core

The YZRC was founded with two goals: to model human diseases in zebrafish with the long-term goal of facilitating small molecule screens for novel therapies and to lower the barrier of entry for Yale investigators seeking to carry out experiments in zebrafish. 

The YZRC offers full experimental services in zebrafish from conception to execution to analysis to writing. We make mutant fish and transgenics, and we can also perform various imaging and behavioral experiments in zebrafish. Researchers are welcome to involve themselves at any level of effort in these experiments. For a full list of our services and associated costs, please visit our legacy services page.
