Explore the world of zebrafish research by touring the Zon • Lab at Children's Hospital Boston. • • http://stemcell.childrenshospital.org... • • Richard White, M.D. shows how the lab is using zebrafish to research • blood stem cells, with the ultimate goal of developing treatments for • diseases such as melanoma, leukemia, and lymphoma. Zebrafish - • vertebrates like us - are particularly useful because their gene • functions are remarkably similar to our own. To see how stem cells behave • in a living animal, the lab has developed a transparent zebrafish called • Casper. The Zon Lab is part of the Stem Cell Program at Children's • Hospital Boston.
