The Regents of the University of Minnesota received a $731,592 Project Grant award (issued June 15, 2026, through February 28, 2030) from the National Institutes of Health Office of the Director under the Research Infrastructure Programs (CFDA 93.351) to develop and disseminate cryopreservation methods for zebrafish embryos. The primary deliverables include a standardized zebrafish embryo cryopreservation protocol utilizing microinjection of cryoprotectants and plasmonic nanoparticles combined with laser rewarming technology, which the awardee will refine to achieve reliable long-term storage and recovery of complete diploid and mitochondrial genomes. The university will develop reliable methods for cryogenic storage and shipping of zebrafish embryos and conduct mutagenicity studies to ensure the preservation process does not introduce unintended genetic changes. In partnership with the Zebrafish International Resource Center (ZIRC) and the broader cryobiology and zebrafish research communities, the awardee will standardize and disseminate the cryopreservation resources to individual research laboratories and stock centers, with particular focus on identifying and prioritizing genetic stocks at risk of loss due to disaster or genetic drift. The project will demonstrate efficacy of the cryopreservation protocol on a large scale with selected wild-type zebrafish strains, thereby providing the research community with critical infrastructure to preserve over 45,000 existing zebrafish genetic lines while reducing the logistical and financial burden of maintaining these essential model organisms.Federal Project Grant Award Summary
