Zebrafish

(to add to Brainbow page)

Zebrafish is a vertebrate model in which neurodevelopment can be easily studied because the embryos are transparent and develop externally. Zebrabow was based on the original Brainbow to study the nervous system and has been modified to study other tissues in zebrafish as well. [1][2]

Ruth Bleier

For Career section

Medicine and Scholarship

Following medical school, Bleier interned at the Sinai Hospital in Baltimore, Maryland and then practiced general medicine in the inner city of Baltimore for ten years.[1] Due to her lack of cooperation when subpoenaed by the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAAC), she was placed on the HUAAC blacklist resulting in Bleier losing her hospital privileges.[2][3] Since she lost her legal ability to practice medicine, Bleier went to Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in 1957 to study neuroanatomy with Professor Jerzy Rose, completing her post-doctoral fellowship in 1961. Bleier gave up her medical practice in order to teach psychiatry and physiology at the Adolph Meyer Laboratory of Neuroanatomy. She then joined the University of Wisconsin-Madison department of Neurophysiology in 1967; at the same time Bleier was also working with Weisman Center of Mental Retardation and the Wisconsin Regional Primate Center.[4] Bleier is a known authority on the animal hypothalamus: she has published works detailing the anatomy of the cat, guinea pig, and rhesus monkey hypothalamuses. [5]

In the 1970s, Bleier began to see how the biological sciences were affected by sexism and other cultural biases, and thus devoted herself to the application of feminist analyses and viewpoint to the practices and theories of science.[6] Bleier helped establish the Woman's Studies Program at the University of Wisconsin in 1975, and served as chair from 1982 to 1986. [7] She also began to focus on improving women's access and station in higher education.[6] Bleier argued against the idea of sociobiology as an explanation of conventional gender roles.[8] In her work she demonstrated how gender, sexuality, and science, are constantly changing in response to social values and ideas rather than being static and judgment-free. [9] She published work that brought together feminist theories and natural sciences: Science and Gender: A Critique of Biology and Its Theories on Women and Feminist Approaches to Science. [5]

Activism and Advocacy

Bleier advocated for civil rights with the Maryland Committee for Peace in the early 1950s.[7][3] She also advocated for the end of the Korean War; this work lead to the subpoena from HUAAC, which was run by Senator Joseph McCarthy at the time period. At the hearing, Bleier reported the Committee for Peace had no members and would not confirm that she was head of the committee.[10][7]

Sticking to her activist routes, Bleier was a founding member of the Association of Faculty Women (AFW) at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. The Association challenged the administration to reassess the status and salaries of female instructors campus-wide and to rectify inequalities.[9] The Association succeeded in equaling pay for men and women university workers and also succeeded in integrating gymnasiums by having the women faculty have a group shower in the men's locker room. Bleier was chair of the AFW when Title IX was signed in to law and was pivotal in achieving more equitable conditions for women's athletics at Wisconsin. [11]
