New research by McGill University biologists shows that milder winters have led to physical alterations in two species of mice in southern Quebec in the…
Mice seem to be addicted to the scent of urine and repeatedly go back to spots where they found the excretions. Researchers have discovered that…
Japanese scientists have been able to coax mouse stem cells into becoming viable eggs that were able to produce healthy offspring. This will provide a…
Bacteria living within the gut could have a link to obesity, possibly explaining how antibiotics fatten farm animals, and humans as well, and predispose some…
Joint pain is common among older adults and osteoarthritis is something many active people will face as they age. Scientists at Washington University School of…
According to new research, house mice (Mus musculus) are ideal biomarkers of human settlement as they tend to stow away in crates or on ships…
It’s been explained at the International Conference on Emerging Infectious Diseases (ICEID) that the northeastern part of the United States faces the worst year yet…
Scientists from the University of Virginia and University of North Carolina have discovered a previously unidentified type of circular DNA molecule occurring outside the chromosomes…
Neuroscientists found that mice, like humans, have distinct processing streams in visual cortical areas and plan to use this to explore more deeply the neurological…
Scientists have reported that they have successfully transplanted human stem cell-derived neurons into the brains of living mice. Human embryonic stem cells grown in a…
