Description

Confocal micrograph of the brain of a transgenic zebrafish embryo. Some neurons express the green fluorescent protein (GFP) - shown in green under the control of a specific promotor. Tracts, axons and neuropils have been labeled using antibodies against tubulin (red) and synaptic vesicles (blue). The brain has been dissected out, removing skin and eyes. This image is a dorsal (back) view of the brain. CIL 39026 is the anterior view.
