Researchers reversed anxiety, depression-like behavior, and social withdrawal in mice by correcting the dosage of a single gene, Grik4, in one population of amygdala neurons. The work, published in ...

You can’t call it a dictionary just yet, but University of Delaware neuroscientist Joshua Neunuebel is starting to break the code mice use to communicate with each other. So far, it’s all ...

Brun Ulfhake spent decades studying aging in mice before he discovered a treasure trove of new data, one that many researchers overlook. Until this trove became available, researchers had a hard time ...

A group of scientists from South Korea discovered that the use of nanoparticles can control the emotions and appetite of mice without doing any surgery. Nick Fewings from Unsplash Researchers at the ...

In the late 2000s and early 2010s, neurogeneticist Vivek Kumar, then a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, screened thousands of randomly mutagenized mice.

Mice have long been a central part of neuroscience research, providing a flexible model that scientists can control and study to learn more about the intricate inner workings of the brain.
