Abstract
Zebrafishbrain.org is an online neuroanatomical atlas of the embryonic zebrafish. The atlas uses high-resolution confocal images and movies of transgenic lines to describe different brain structures. This chapter covers detail of materials and protocols that we employ to generate data for the atlas.
