Hope for childhood epilepsy: How fast-breeding zebrafish are making a difference
Scientists need to better understand what goes wrong in the developing brain to find new treatments for epilepsy – freshwater minnows are vital to their work.
Exploring our research and other stories from the University community.

Mouse blood pressure measurements aid our understanding of how early-life environment and genetics are translated into later life health.
We've developed a minimally invasive method of blood sampling, which allows multiple samples to be taken from the same animal with as little stress as possible.
Developmental geneticist, Dr Kim Moorwood, explores how the genes behind fetal growth could impact our chances of serious health conditions in later life.
Bath researchers are building model tumours to learn how pancreatic cancer affects nerve cells and find new therapies to target tumour growth and patient pain.
