Abstract
Many factors interact in the development and progression of inflammatory bowel disease. This complexity demands a combination of methods to disentangle the pathology of this disease. As reported by Oehlers et al. in this issue, the zebrafish drug screen is one simple approach that could enable the elucidation of the pathways involved in IBD and ultimately the discovery of new therapeutics.
