The Transgenic Zebrafish Core Laboratory functions to facilitate use of zebrafish as a vertebrate model system for basic and biomedical science and comparative genomics. Services, equipment, and resources are available to investigators associated with Augusta University or the University System of Georgia on a fee-for-service basis.
Located in CA-3043 (Interdisciplinary Research Building), the Zebrafish Core Laboratory is equipped to maintain ~50,000 adult fish (3000 aquaria) in a temperature and light-controlled environment. A dedicated staff ensures continuity of care, breeding, and quality embryo production. Core Laboratory microscopes, imaging equipment, and computers are available for use by all Augusta University research laboratories.

Research Area:
Zebrafish embryos are optically transparent and easily accessible for observation and experimental manipulation. To exploit these features the Zebrafish Core is well equipped with the following instrumentation.
Our facility provides state-of-the-art zebrafish housing and care, provides comprehensive services to zebrafish users, and encourages new users to utilize the zebrafish model. Operation of the facility is sustained by user fees as well as generous support from the institution.
