The latest research led by our Ph.D. candidate Mert Karakaya, collaborators Andrea Scaramuzzi and Simone Macrì, and Prof. Maurizio Porfiri has just been published in Progress in Neuropsychopharmacology & Biological Psychiatry. The study investigates the response of Zebrafish to acute Citalopram administration in circumstances that evoke aversion, for example being chased by a robotic fish.
