Gerlai and Butterworth say they’d like to take advantage of zebrafish’s known genome and well-characterized anatomy to learn more about how numerosity—the value of a set—is computed. Butterworth says they want to identify the genes responsible for constructing the neural mechanisms. Such information might help uncover the basis of human dyscalculia—learning disabilities in math. “Can we identify this gene or these genes in order to tell which individuals are going to have problems doing this task?” asks Butterworth. “We might be able to get to the bottom of it by looking for genes in other species.”
