Each time Matthew Zipple, a behavioral ecologist at Cornell University, releases a mouse that was born and raised in a ...

When scientists opened the doors of a research facility and let carefully bred lab mice loose into a fenced field, they ...

For generations, laboratory mice have lived and died under fluorescent lights, their world reduced to plastic cages and ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
