Young mice seemingly attempt to revive an anaesthetised cage mate by grooming and biting it and will even pull aside the ...

Researchers have created genome-wide, high-resolution genetic maps of 100 inbred mouse strains. Compared with wild-derived strains, most of today's classical lab strains have limited genetic diversity ...

A new study shows that enhancing activity of a specific component of 'NMDA' receptors normalizes protein synthesis, neural activity and seizure susceptibility in the hippocampus of fragile X lab mice.

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 ...

In order to do so, however, they first needed to create a small, transparent window into the skulls of lab mice. They then trained the tool on the direct cranial opening after providing their test ...
