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 ...

When you take the lab away, female mice are more likely to play, according to a new Cornell study. The study, published in the journal BMC Biology, took lab mice and placed them in large outdoor ...

When scientists opened the doors of a research facility and let carefully bred lab mice loose into a fenced field, they expected skittish, fragile animals to struggle. Instead, the mice rapidly shed ...

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.

In the CAB Lab we study the neural and behavioral mechanisms that exert control over choices and adjustment of behavior to changes in the environment. We specifically focus on cortical circuits ...

A new study has examined social behavior of lab mice in large outdoor enclosures. A new Cornell University study is the first to examine social behavior of lab mice in large outdoor enclosures. The ...

ITHACA, N.Y. – A new Cornell University study is the first to examine social behavior of lab mice in large outdoor enclosures. The research, published in the journal BMC Biology, took lab mice and ...
