Investigating Zebrafish Microglia with Confocal Microscopy to Understand Brain Development
Microglia are the dominant immune cells in the central nervous system (CNS). They play a critical role in brain development by both trimming and promoting synapse formation, which makes our brains more efficient as we transition out of childhood. Additionally, microglia clear apoptotic neurons, which is an essential task both in brain development and disease.... Read more
