One kind of NAM that I believe could help to transform our ability to understand environmental exposures and their potential biological effects is actually a tiny nonmammalian species — the zebrafish. In early January, I took part in an environmental health conference in India hosted by the country’s National Environmental Engineering Research Institute, which is part of the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research there. Among other presentations, NIEHS grant recipient Robyn Tanguay, Ph.D., from Oregon State University (OSU), discussed her use of zebrafish and why she thinks they represent a paradigm shift in toxicological research.
