The zebrafish (Danio rerio) is a potentially exquisite model system to investigate the genetic basis of cancer, but it has proved difficult to create stable transgenic lines of tumor-bearing fish. In the February 7 Science, David Langenau and colleagues report the generation of a zebrafish model of T cell leukemia that highlights the potential application of using fish to find cures for cancer (Science, 299:887-890, February 7, 2003).
