Description

Piotr Podlasz and colleagues present Polish Zebrafish Society recommendations for using zebrafish in biomedical research in 2026. The small fish has become a standard stand-in for human disease study. Its fast growth, clear body, and tractable genes offer high value while sparing larger animals.

The guidance spans cancer, toxicology, brain disease, metabolism, immunity, heart work, and genetic disease modeling. It weighs the proof for each use and pairs it with welfare duties under the replacement, reduction, and refinement principles. Real-time viewing of disease in living fish is a headline strength. The society aims to standardize practice across labs, drug firms, and regulators.
