The increasing demand for innovative techniques arises from the lack of safe, effective, and patient-friendly therapies for neurodegenerative disorders. With this objective in mind, the chapters of the book are structured to offer a thorough insight into recent advancements in utilizing the zebrafish (ZF) as a model for studying Parkinson’s disease (PD). This book aims to present readers with a comprehensive understanding of the clinical application of the ZF model in treating PD, encompassing the latest developments, challenges, safety considerations, toxicity issues, regulatory aspects, future potential, and limitations. Individuals in academia, the scientific community, business, and education seeking a more effective approach to target the brain stand to benefit from this resource.Key FeaturesProvides a comparative perspective of the zebrafish–Parkinson’s disease modelHighlights the restrictions of available medicinesDescribes biochemical and histopathological characteristics, advantages, and disadvantages of this modelEmphasizes distinct facets of histopathologyPresents advances and developments of the future potential perspectives
