Editorial: Advances in techniques for measurement and assessment of physiological processes in developing animals
( Frontiers Media , 2023 , Other)Developmental Physiology can be broadly defined as the field of science aiming to understand the physiological processes shaping a fertilized egg of a species into a wellstructured and functional multi-cellular organism. ... -
Effect of Water-Pipe Smoking on the Normal Development of Zebrafish
( MDPI , 2021 , Article)Background: Among all types of tobacco consumption,Water-Pipe Smoking (WPS) is the most widely used in the Middle East and second-most in several other countries. The effect of WPS on normal development is not yet fully ... -
The First International Zebrafish Conference/Workshop in Qatar.
( Mary Ann Liebert , 2019 , Article)A zebrafish conference/workshop was held in Qatar between April 13 and 17, 2019. The aim of the event was to promote zebrafish research in Qatar and in Middle East/Asia by bringing together local zebrafish researchers with ... -
Functional characterization of human myosin-binding protein C3 variants associated with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy reveals exon-specific cardiac phenotypes in zebrafish model
( Wiley , 2020 , Article)© 2020 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Myosin-binding protein C 3 (MYBPC3) variants are the most common cause of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). HCM is a complex cardiac disorder due to its significant genetic and clinical ... -
Generating an imagingbased approach for enhanced structural and functional analysis of zebrafish cardiovascular systems
