White blood cells taken from a strain of cancer-resistant mice cured aggressive cancers in ordinary laboratory mice, researchers at Wake Forest University report in the current online edition of th… ...

First-ever mouse strain CAST/EiJ mouse naturally susceptible to severe COVID-19 discovered, enabling advanced research without genetic modification. Scientists have discovered a new mouse model ...

In a Wuhan-esque study, Chinese scientists are experimenting with a mutant COVID strain that is 100% lethal to “humanized” mice. The deadly virus — known as GX_P2V — attacked the brains of ...

Re. Life Without Rodents (Cyberia - Jack Kapica): My introduction to carpal tunnel syndrome was in 1998, while working on the Y2K project. Physiotherapy helped. I found out that poor posture ...

Muddled memory. In mice, message-receiving dendritic spines (bumps in lower panels) were sparse after infections with flu strains H3N2 and H7N7.
