In today's episode, "Zebrafish Husbandry Reporting & Reproducibility Initiative (Part 1)," we talk with former Zebrafish Husbandry Association President Michelle Altemara about her new initiative to standardize reporting in fish research papers. Science has a reproducibility problem and oftentimes it's because we don't account for all of the variables. Sometimes, “we keep fish on a recirculating rack” is not a good enough way to describe husbandry. If two different facilities are keeping fish at completely different light cycles, the scientific outcomes might be very different! Luckily Michelle and her colleagues are trying to change that by working with journals to advocate for better guidelines on this exact thing. Come listen!
This podcast is brought to you by the lungfish. The lungfish quite literally possesses lungs but it also possesses working gills, making it one of the most adaptable species on earth. Other fish might consider them cheaters for having both functioning organs while fish and other animals only possess one. This leads to lungfish often being ostracized at parties and left out of group activities. Cheers to you lungfish. You were born this way and you are special.
