Movies

Please note: clicking on the links below will download a fairly long QuickTime movie. Don't do it unless you have QuickTime installed and are willing to put up with the wait!

	Animated GIFs [150K] I've put a couple of lo-res animated GIF files on a page for anybody to use
	Zebrafish development [1.7M] This movie shows the entire course of zebrafish development from egg to twitching embryo
	Zebrafish development [2.4M] This one shows early cleavage, epiboly, and axis formation with higher resolution than the movie above
	Zebrafish flipbook movie [1.1M] This movie isn't mine; it's the famous series by Karlstrom & Kane from the December 1996 issue of Development
	Effects of ethanol exposure [2.3M] A movie of a normal embryo, and one exposed to alcohol at 4.5h of development
	Calcium imaging in blastomeres [2.2M] Dividing blastomeres were labeled with the calcium-sensitive dye, Fura-2, and flashes of red and yellow reveal elevated calcium levels at cleavage sites
	Myotome formation [608K] Watch a few myotomes pinch off during tail extension
	Lateral line primordium migration [1.7M] The lateral line primordium is a migrating placode that crawls down the side of the fish, leaving cells as it goes that will form sensory organs
	Reticulospinal growth cone [984K] A hindbrain neuron was labeled with the fluorescent dye Di-I, and we can watch its axon extend into the spinal cord
	Twitch [976K] This is a very short, real-time movie of a single twitch by a 24h zebrafish embryo
