It’s tiny, but this lab mouse could have a mammoth impact. With curly whiskers and wavy, light hair that grows three times longer than that of an ordinary lab mouse, the genetically modified rodent ...
Technologies at the Advanced Rodent Transgenics Laboratory include genome editing design and implementation and transgenic ...
In the wild, a mouse or rat leads a precarious life. In the city, they dodge traps, poisons, and broom-wielding humans. In the countryside, they face owls, shotguns, and more poison. As Australia’s ...
New research suggests that the commonly used ‘lab mouse’ may display behaviors entirely distinct from their wild-derived counterparts, prompting new considerations for the future of animal-based ...
Scientists stress out lab mice, a lot. Inducing chronic stress and anxiety in these furry critters is how scientists explore the bodily and cognitive effects of stress and discover anti-anxiety ...
Scientists at Queen Mary University of London and the University of Hong Kong have created a mouse with substituted genes from a single-celled organism known as a choanoflagellate. Scientists replaced ...
Genetically altered mice are valuable tools in biomedical research. The Mutant Mouse Resource and Research Center, located at UC Davis and supported by a grant from NIH, has been providing a national ...
