I read an article about fish today. I found this article to be intriguing at the least. The article was called, 'see a fish think' which was basically what the title say. Seeing is believing,” says Koichi Kawakami, a molecular and developmental biologist at Japan’s National Institute of Genetics. The team he put together tempered with the fish's DNA, injecting it with protein present only in neurons would fluoresce when the neurons were firing. Together the team watched how the fish's brain acted as it eyed and attacked it prey. They hope to take this research further in the future. I hope to learn more about this experiment in the future, I can't help but wonder how they will take this further? What more can come out of this? And, have scientist made a break through in how fish think and why?
