Fish and Finance (VIDEO)

This video explains how the movements of zebrafish follow a well known pattern seen in the stock market. The findings will help researchers develop better experiments using zebrafish -- an important laboratory animal because of its genetic similarities to humans -- and analyze outcomes of those experiments. By developing these computer simulations, fewer fish will be needed for experiments.
