Get up close with UNE students in the Behavioral/Cognitive Neuroscience Lab class while they research various response patterns of zebrafish.
In the Zebrafish Lab, students work to develop a hypothesis where they try to determine which group of fish have a genetic mutation and which group do not. This zebrafish mutation represents a deficient stress response system, which is a model of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Groups of students work to create an experiment and complete various types of behavior testing with the zebrafish.
This interdisciplinary lab course is part of UNE's Neuroscience degree program and serves as an elective for the Animal Behavior degree program, along with the Psychology degree program.
At the University of New England in Maine, you’ll learn through doing. Professors bring lessons, like the Zebrafish Lab, to life through real experiences in labs and outdoors, and there are many opportunities beyond class to dig deeper. So roll up your sleeves — because at UNE you’ll learn on your feet more than in your seat.
