Larissa&#8217;s project will involve studying the effects of an environmental toxicant, triphenyl phsophate (TPhP) on zebrafish gene expression.  TPhP is used in circuit boards, hydraulic fluids, glues, among others, and Zebrafish are a regularly used model for human toxicology.  As a result, this project will provide important data about the dangers of a compound that is found at low concentrations throughout the environment.
