Three-dimensional scoring of zebrafish behavior unveils biological phenomena hidden by two-dimensional analyses

Abstract The study of zebrafish behavior represents a cornerstone upon which basic researchers promise to advance knowledge in life sciences. Although zebrafish swim in a three-dimensional (3D) space, their behavior in the lab is almost exclusively scored in two dimensions, whereby zebrafish are rec...
